In this paper we obtain a second order asymptotic expansion of the joint survival probability P(X > x, Y> y) for x,y large. Further, based on the asymptotic bounds we discuss some aspects of the statistical modelling of joint survival probabilities and the survival conditional excess probability.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2008-05-15T05:30:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60F05", "60G70" ], "keywords": [ "tail asymptotics", "elliptical distributions", "joint survival probability", "estimation", "survival conditional excess probability" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0708.1965H" } } }
