Abstract The purpose of this paper is estimating the dependence function of multivariate extreme values copulas. Different nonparametric estimators are developed in the literature assuming that marginal distributions are known. However, this assumption is unrealistic in practice. To overcome the drawbacks of these estimators, we substituted the extreme value marginal distribution by the empirical distribution function. Monte Carlo experiments are carried out to compare the performance of the Pickands, Deheuvels, Hall-Tajvidi, Zhang and Gudendorf-Segers estimators. Empirical results showed that the empirical distribution function improved the estimators’ performance for different sample sizes.

Let X (1) ≦ X (2) ≦ ·· ·≦ X (N(t)) be the order statistics of the first N(t) elements from a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables, where {N(t); t ≧ 0} is a renewal counting process independent of the sequence of X's. We give a complete description of the asymptotic distribution of sums made from the top kt extreme values, for any sequence kt such that kt → ∞, kt /t → 0 as t → ∞. We discuss applications to reinsurance policies based on large claims.

Lao and Mayer (2008) recently developed the theory of U-max-statistics, where instead of the usual averaging the values of the kernel over subsets, the maximum of the kernel is considered. Such statistics often appear in stochastic geometry. Their limit distributions are related to distributions of extreme values. This is the first article devoted to the study of the generalized perimeter (the sum of side powers) of an inscribed random polygon, and of U-max-statistics associated with it. It describes the limiting behavior for the extreme values of the generalized perimeter. This problem has not been studied in the literature so far. One obtains some limit theorems in the case when the parameter y, arising in the definition of the generalized perimeter does not exceed 1.
