The tail process revisited

Extremes Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The tail measure of a regularly varying stationary time series has been recently introduced. It is used in this contribution to reconsider certain properties of the tail process and establish new ones. A new formulation of the time change formula is used to establish identities, some of which were indirectly known and some of which are new.
