Statistics of Extremes in Athletics
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2011 TV shows on any athletic event make clear that those who want gold medals cannot dispense statistics. And the statistics more appealing to champions and coachers are the extreme order statistics, and in particular maximum (or minimum) values and records.

Statistics of Heteroscedastic Extremes [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014 SummaryWe extend classical extreme value theory to non-identically distributed observations. When the tails of the distribution are proportional much of extreme value statistics remains valid. The proportionality function for the tails can be estimated non-parametrically along with the (common) extreme value index.

Improvements in the Estimation of a Heavy Tail
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2006 In this paper, and in a context of regularly varying tails, we suggest new tail index estimators, which provide interesting alternatives to the classical Hill estimator of the tail index γ.

Statistical Modeling of Spatial Extremes
Statistical Science, 2012 The areal modeling of the extremes of a natural process such as rainfall or temperature is important in environmental statistics; for example, understanding extreme areal rainfall is crucial in flood protection. This article reviews recent progress in the statistical modeling of spatial extremes, starting with sketches of the necessary elements of ...
