Space-time extremes and applications to environmental data
The Maximum Domain of Attraction condition was the breakthrough result from which Extreme Value Theory - as a branch of Probability and Statistics - successfully evolved, providing a consistent way for extrapolating sample information to higher or lower values. In the one-dimensional case the procedure has been applied for describing extreme phenomena in many fields of knowledge. New challenges arise when extending the methods to higher dimensions. After introducing the elementary MDA condition, open problems of this thematic to address in a Master thesis will be illustrated.
