  • As an extension of the well-known Pickands (1975) estimate. for the extreme value index, Yun (2002) introduced a generalized Pickands estimator. This paper searches for a minimax estimator in the sense of minimizing the maximum asymptotic relative efficiency of the Pickands estimator with respect to the generalized one. To reduce the asymptotic variance of the resulting estimator, convex combinations of the minimax estimator are also considered and their asymptotic normality is established. Finally, the optimal combination is determined and proves to be superior to the generalized Pickands estimator.

  • In this paper a numerical method is presented to solve singularly perturbed two points boundary value problems for second order ordinary differential equations consisting a discontinuous source term. First, in this method, an asymptotic expansion approximation of the solution of the boundary value problem is constructed using the basic ideas of a well known perturbation method WKB. Then some initial value problems and terminal value problems are constructed such that their solutions are the terms of this asymptotic expansion. These initial value problems are happened to be singularly perturbed problems and therefore fitted mesh method (Shishkin mesh) are used to solve these problems. Necessary error estimates are derived and examples provided to illustrate the method.

  • In this paper we introduce a method of improving efficiency of the moment estimator of Dekkers, Einmahl and de Haan(1989) for the extreme value index $\beta$. a new estimator of $\beta$ is proposed by adding the third moment ot the original moment estimator which is composed of the first two moments of the log-transformed sample data. We establish asymptotic normality of the new estimator and examine and adaptive procedure for the new estimator. The resulting adaptive estimator proves to be asymptotically better than the moment estimator particularly for $\beta$<0.

  • Falk(1994) showed that the asymptotic efficiency of the Pickands estimator of the extreme value index $\beta$ can considerably be improved by a simple convex combination. In this paper we propose an alternative estimator of $\beta$ which is as asymptotically efficient as the optimal convex combination of the Pickands estimators but has a better finite-sample performance. We prove consistency and asymptotic normality of the proposed estimator. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to compare the finite-sample performances of the proposed estimator and the optimal convex combination estimator.

  • In this paper we generalize and improve the refined Pickands estimator of Drees (1995) for the extreme value index. The finite-sample performance of the refined Pickands estimator is not good particularly when the sample size n is small. For each fixed k = 1,2,..., a new estimator is defined by a convex combination of k different generalized Pickands estimators and its asymptotic normality is established. Optimal weights defining the estimator are also determined to minimize the asymptotic variance of the estimator. Finally, letting k depend upon n, we see that the resulting estimator has a better finite-sample behavior as well as a better asymptotic efficiency than the refined Pickands estimator.

  • In this paper, we investigate the capacity of a multipoint-to-point cognitive radio network. In existing works, the asymptotic capacity is only obtained in the high peak power region at secondary transmitter (ST) or obtained without considering the interference from primary transmitter (PT) for easy analysis. Here, we analyze the asymptotic capacity by considering an arbitrary peak power at the ST and the interference from the PT based on extreme value theory. Simulation results show that our approximated capacity is well-matched to the exact capacity. Furthermore, the scaling law of our capacity is found to be double logarithm of the number of secondary users.
