This paper is devoted to the investigation of limit theorems for extremes with random sample size under general dependence-independence conditions for samples and random sample size indexes. Limit theorems of weak convergence type are obtained as well as functional limit theorems for extremal processes with random sample size indexes.

AbstractBy the use of a semi-martingale property of the Kolmogorov supremum, the results of Pyke (6) on the weak convergence of the empirical process with random sample size are simplified and extended to the case of p(≥1)-dimensional stochastic vectors.

At which (random) sample size will every population element have been drawn at least m times? This special coupon collector's problem is often referred to as the Dixie cup problem. Some asymptotic properties of the Dixie cup problem with unequal sampling probabilities are described.

The number Yn of offspring of the most prolific individual in the nth generation of a Bienaymé–Galton–Watson process is studied. The asymptotic behaviour of Yn as n → ∞ may be viewed as an extreme value problem for i.i.d. random variables with random sample size. Limit theorems for both Yn and EYn provided that the offspring mean is finite are obtained using some convergence results for branching processes as well as a transfer limit lemma for maxima. Subcritical, critical and supercritical branching processes are considered separately.
