Let W = {W-n : n is an element of N} be a sequence of random vectors in R-d, d >= 1. In this paper we consider the logarithmic asymptotics of the extremes of W, that is, for any vector q > 0 in R-d, we find that log P(there exists n is an element of N: W-n > uq) as u -> infinity. We follow the approach of the restricted large deviation principle introduced in Duffy (2003). That is, we assume that, for every q >= 0, and some scalings {a(n)}, {v(n)}, (1/v(n)) log P(W-n/a(n) >= uq) has a, continuous in q, limit Jw(q). We allow the scalings {a(n)} and {v(n)} to be regularly varying with a positive index. This approach is general enough to incorporate sequences W, such that the probability law of W-n/a(n) satisfies the large deviation principle with continuous, not necessarily convex, rate functions. The equations for these asymptotics are in agreement with the literature. |
