Let {ξ; t = 1, 2, …} be a stationary normal sequence with zero means, unit variances, and covariances let be independent and standard normal, and write . In this paper we find bounds on which are roughly of the order where ρ is the maximal correlation, ρ =sup {0, r 1 , r 2, …}. It is further shown that, at least for m-dependent sequences, the bounds are of the right order and, in a simple example, the errors are evaluated numerically. Bounds of the same order on the rate of convergence of the point processes of exceedances of one or several levels are obtained using a ‘representation' approach (which seems to be of rather wide applicability). As corollaries we obtain rates of convergence of several functionals of the point processes, including the joint distribution function of the k largest values amongst ξ1, …, ξn.

LetXn1≦Xn2≦ ··· ≦Xnndenote the order statistics from a sample ofnindependent, identically distributed random variables, and suppose that the variablesXnn, Xn,n–1, ···, when suitably normalized, have a non-trivial limiting joint distributionξ1,ξ2, ···, asn → ∞. It is well known that the limiting distribution must be one of just three types. We provide a canonical representation of the stochastic process {ξn,n≧ 1} in terms of exponential variables, and use this representation to obtain limit theorems forξnasn →∞.

Under appropriate long-range dependence conditions, it is well known that the joint distribution of the number of exceedances of several high levels is asymptotically compound Poisson. Here we investigate the structure of a cluster of exceedances for stationary sequences satisfying a suitable local dependence condition, under which it is only necessary to get certain limiting probabilities, easy to compute, in order to obtain limiting results for the highest order statistics, exceedance counts and upcrossing counts.
