The principal investigator will continue his research in the               extreme value theory, in collaboration with de Haan.  The                       particular interest for this project is asymptotic theory of the                extremes of multivariate negative exponential distributions.                    Theory of extremes has a number of applications including                       meteorological data, flood and wind measurements.  The behavior                 of the multivariate extremes depends not only on the stability of               the marginal distributions but the dependence structure of the                  multivariate distributions.  Study will be made for various                     dependence functions.  Estimation of the dependence functions                   will be studied.
