Abstract

We investigate the shape of an excursion above a high level u by a stationary Gaussian process. The shape depends on the conditioned mean and covariances of the underlying process. The paths vary slightly around a deterministic trend. The probability of such event can be determined asymptotically exactly for u → ∞.
