We investigate the asymptotics for two geometric measures, geometric quantiles and halfspace depths. While much literature is known on the population side, we fill out some gaps there to obtain a full picture, before turning to the sample versions, where the questions on asymptotics become...

We introduce a method to estimate simultaneously the tail and the threshold parameters of an extreme value regression model. This standard model finds its use in finance to assess the effect of market variables on extreme loss distributions of investment vehicles such as hedge funds. However, a...

Not a day goes by without news about a cyber attack. Fear spreads out and lots of wrong ideas circulate. This survey aims at showing how all these uncertainties about cyber can be transformed into manageable risk. After reviewing the main characteristics of cyber risk, we consider the three...

The study of concomitants has recently met a renewed interest due to its applications in selection procedures. For instance, concomitants are used in rankedset sampling, to achieve efficiency and reduce cost when compared to the simple random sampling. In parallel, the search for new methods to...

Cyber security and resilience are major challenges in our modern economies; this is why they are top priorities on the agenda of governments, security and defense forces, management of companies and organizations. Hence, the need of a deep understanding of cyber risks to improve resilience. We...
