Sojourn times and the fragility index

Abstract

We investigate the sojourn time above a high threshold of a continuous stochastic process Y=(Yt)t∈[0,1]. It turns out that the limit, as the threshold increases, of the expected sojourn time given that it is positive, exists if the copula process corresponding to Y is in the functional domain of attraction of a max-stable process. This limit coincides with the limit of the fragility index corresponding to (Yi/n)1≤i≤n as n and the threshold increase.
