On Extremes of Stationary Processes.

Abstract : Certain aspects of extremal theory for stationary sequences and continuous parameter stationary processes, are discussed in this paper. A slightly modified form of a previously used dependence condition, leads to simple proofs of some key results in extremal theory of stationary sequences. Dependence conditions of a 'weak mixing' type are introduced for continuous parameter stationary processes and results of classical extreme value theory extended to that context. (Author)
