Abstract
Let X1 , . . . , Xn be independent random variables with common distribution function F. Define Mn := max Xi1≤i≤n and let G(cursive Greek chi) be one of the extreme - value distributions. Assume F ∈ D(G), i.e., there exist an > 0 and bn ∈ double-struck R sign such that P{(Mn - bn)/an ≤ cursive Greek chi} → G(cursive Greek chi), for cursive Greek chi ∈ double-struck R sign . Let 1(-∞,cursive Greek chi](·) denote the indicator function of the set (-∞, cursive Greek chi] and S(G) =: {cursive Greek chi : 0 < G(cursive Greek chi) < 1}. Obviously, 1(-∞,cursive Greek chi]((Mn - bn)/an) does not converge almost surely for any cursive Greek chi ∈ S(G). But we shall prove (equation presented).
