Let (X_n,Y_n), n\ge 1 be bivariate random claim sizes with common distribution function F and let N(t), t \ge 0 be a stochastic process which counts the number of claims that occur in the time interval [0,t], t\ge 0. In this paper we derive…

In this paper, we compare two variances of maxima of $N$ standard Gaussian random variables. One is a sequence of $N$ i.i.d. standard Gaussians, and the other one is $N$ standard Gaussians with covariances $\sigma_{1,2}=\rho \in(0,1)$ and…

Let $X_{i,n},n\in \mathbb{N},1\leq i\leq n$, be a triangular array of independent $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued Gaussian random vectors with correlation matrices $\Sigma_{i,n}$. We give necessary conditions under which the row-wise maxima converge…
