SEMINARIO

"EXTREME VALUE THEORY AND SOME APPLICATIONS"
***********************************************************************

Prof. JANA JARUSKOVA

Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics
Charles University of Prague

Venerd́' 16 aprile, ore 10:30-13:00 e 15:00-17:00, Aula 4 
Facolta' di Economia
via Mazzaroppi snc, 03043 Cassino


Topics:
1.
Tail behavior of some estimators of location: 
the sample mean and median, M and L estimators.
Tail behavior of the sample extremes.
Relation of the tail behavior and of the breakdown point of an estimator of 
location.

2.
Tail behavior of estimators in the linear regression model. 
Tail behavior of the least squares estimator and its relation to the hat 
(projection) matrix: 
the sample size either fixed or increasing, the regression matrix either fixed 
or random.

3.
Pareto type distributions. 
Estimators of the Pareto index: Pickands, Hill's and moment estimators. 
Estimators based on the tail behavior of the sample mean.

4.
Extreme regression quantiles in the linear regression model, their asymptotic 
behavior.

5.
Tests on the value of the Pareto index based on the subsample extremes, on the 
subsample
averages and others.
