Conditional Extreme Value Estimation for Dependent Time Series

Abstract

We study the consistency and weak convergence of the conditional tail function and conditional Hill estimators under broad dependence assumptions for a heavy-tailed response sequence and a covariate sequence. Consistency is established under $\alpha$-mixing, while asymptotic normality follows from $\beta$-mixing and second-order conditions. A key aspect of our approach is its versatile functional formulation in terms of the conditional tail process. Simulations demonstrate its performance across dependence scenarios. We apply our method to extreme event modelling in the oil industry, revealing distinct tail behaviours under varying conditioning values.
