Abstract

Let {X(t):t[0,)}\{X(t) : t \in [0, \infty) \} be a centered stationary Gaussian process. We study the exact asymptotics of \pr(sups[0,T]X(t)>u)\pr (\sup_{s \in [0,T]} X(t) > u), as uu \to \infty, where TT is an independent of \{X(t)\} nonnegative random variable. It appears that the heaviness of TT impacts the form of the asymptotics, leading to three scenarios: the case of integrable TT, the case of TT having regularly varying tail distribution with parameter λ(0,1)\lambda\in(0,1) and the case of TT having slowly varying tail distribution.
