On the Probability of Conjunctions of Stationary Gaussian Processes

Abstract

Let {Xi(t),t0},1in\{X_i(t),t\ge0\}, 1\le i\le n be independent centered stationary Gaussian processes with unit variance and almost surely continuous sample paths. For given positive constants u,Tu,T, define the set of conjunctions C[0,T],u:={t[0,T]:min1inXi(t)u}.C_{[0,T],u}:=\{t\in [0,T]: \min_{1 \le i \le n} X_i(t) \ge u\}. Motivated by some applications in brain mapping and digital communication systems, we obtain exact asymptotic expansion of $ P(C_{[0,T],u} \not=\varphi)$ as uu\to\infty. Moreover, we establish the Berman sojourn limit theorem for the random process {min1inXi(t),t0}\{\min_{1 \le i \le n} X_i(t), t\ge0\} and derive the tail asymptotics of the supremum of each order statistics process.
