Cluster indices describe extremal behaviour of stationary time series. We consider their sliding blocks estimators. Using a modern theory of multivariate, regularly varying time series, we obtain central limit theorems under conditions that can be easily verified for a large class of models. In particular, we show that in the Peak over Threshold framework, sliding and disjoint blocks estimators have the same limiting variance.

Estimation of cluster functionals for regularly varying time series: Runs estimators
Cluster indices describe extremal behaviour of stationary time series. We consider runs estimators of cluster indices. Using a modern theory of multivariate, regularly varying time series, we obtain…
Statistical analysis for stationary time series at extreme levels: New estimators for the limiting cluster size distribution
Large deviations of lp-blocks of regularly varying time series and applications to cluster inference
In the regularly varying time series setting, a cluster of exceedances is a short period for which the supremum norm exceeds a high threshold. We propose to study a generalization of this notion…
On the Disjoint and Sliding Block Maxima method for piecewise stationary time series
Modeling univariate block maxima by the generalized extreme value distribution constitutes one of the most widely applied approaches in extreme value statistics. It has recently been found that, for…
Tail measures and regular variation
A general framework for the study of regular variation (RV) is that of Polish star-shaped metric spaces, while recent developments in [1] have discussed RV with respect to a properly localised…
Shift-invariant homogeneous classes of random fields
: Let k·k : R d → [0 , ∞ ) be a 1-homogeneous measurable map and let T = R l or T = Z l with d, l two positive integers. For a given R d -valued random field (rf) Z ( t ) , t ∈ T , which satisfies E {k…
Cluster Random Fields and Random-Shift Representations
: This paper investigates random-shift representations of α -homogeneous shift-invariant classes of random fields (rf’s) K α [ Z ], which were introduced in [1]. Here Z ( t ) , t ∈ T is a…

In extreme value statistics for stationary sequences, blocks estimators are usually constructed by using disjoint blocks because exceedances over high thresholds of different blocks can be assumed…
Weak convergence of a pseudo maximum likelihood estimator for the extremal index
The extremes of a stationary time series typically occur in clusters. A primary measure for this phenomenon is the extremal index, representing the reciprocal of the expected cluster size. Both a…

We introduce the cluster index of a multivariate stationary sequence and characterize the index in terms of the spectral tail process. This index plays a major role in limit theory for partial sums…
