Local asymptotic normality in a stationary model for spatial extremes
Abstract
De Haan and Pereira (2006) [6] provided models for spatial extremes in the case of stationarity, which depend on just one parameter [beta]>0 measuring tail dependence, and they proposed different estimators for this parameter. We supplement this framework by establishing local asymptotic normality (LAN) of a corresponding point process of exceedances above a high multivariate threshold. Standard arguments from LAN theory then provide the asymptotic minimum variance within the class of regular estimators of [beta]. It turns out that the relative frequency of exceedances is a regular estimator sequence with asymptotic minimum variance, if the underlying observations follow a multivariate extreme value distribution or a multivariate generalized Pareto distribution.Download Info
