For a sequence of i.i.d. $d$-dimensional random vectors with independent continuously distributed coordinates, say that the $n$th observation in the sequence sets a record if it is not dominated in every coordinate by an earlier…

For iid $d$-dimensional observations $X^{(1)}, X^{(2)}, \ldots$ with independent Exponential$(1)$ coordinates, consider the boundary (relative to the closed positive orthant), or "frontier", $F_n$ of the closed Pareto record-setting (RS)…

We establish a fundamental property of bivariate Pareto records for independent observations uniformly distributed in the unit square. We prove that the asymptotic conditional distribution of the number of records broken by an observation…

The probabilistic investigation on record values and record times of a sequence of random variables defined on the same probability space has received much attention from 1952 to now. A great deal of such theory focused on \textit{iid} or…

We consider records and sequences of records drawn from discrete time series of the form $X_{n}=Y_{n}+cn$, where the $Y_{n}$ are independent and identically distributed random variables and $c$ is a constant drift. For very small and very…

The statistics of records in sequences of independent, identically distributed random variables is a classic subject of study. One of the earliest results concerns the stochastic independence of record events. Recently, records statistics…

For $d\ge2$ and iid $d$-dimensional observations $X^{(1)},X^{(2)},\dots$ with independent Exponential$(1)$ coordinates, we revisit the study by Fill and Naiman (Electron. J. Probab., 2020) of the boundary (relative to the closed positive…

For a zero-mean, unit-variance second-order stationary univariate Gaussian process we derive the probability that a record at the time $n$, say $X_n$, takes place and derive its distribution function. We study the joint distribution of the…

In this paper we study records obtained from partial comparisons within a sequence of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables, indexed by positive integers, with a common density~\(f.\) Our main result is that if…

A probability measure $P_n$ on the symmetric group ${\mathfrak S}_n$ is said to be record-dependent if $P_n(\sigma)$ depends only on the set of records of a permutation $\sigma\in{\mathfrak S}_n$. A sequence $P=(P_n)_{n\in{\mathbb N}}$ of…

Daily precipitation time series are composed of null entries corresponding to dry days and nonzero entries that describe the rainfall amounts on wet days. Assuming that wet days follow a Bernoulli process with success probability $p$, we…

Let $X_1,~X_2,\cdots$ be a sequence of i.i.d random variables which are supposed to be observed in sequence. The $n$th value in the sequence is a $k-record~value$ if exactly $k$ of the first $n$ values (including $X_n$) are at least as…

In the context of this paper, a record is an entry in a sequence of random variables (RV's) that is larger or smaller than all previous entries. After a brief review of the classic theory of records, which is largely restricted to sequences…
