β¦ Synopsis
It is well known that the rate of convergence of the extremes in an iid sample of univariate random variables is determined by the distance of the underlying distribution from a generalized Pareto distribution. We extend this result to higher dimensions.

The paper considers the problem of estimating the dependence function of a bivariate extreme survival function with standard exponential marginals. Nonparametric estimators for the dependence function are proposed and their strong uniform convergence under suitable conditions is demonstrated. Compar
The tail behaviour of many bivariate distributions with unit FrΓ echet margins can be characterised by the coe cient of tail dependence and a slowly varying function. We show that such a characterisation is not always possible, and neither implies nor is implied by the fact that the distribution bel
