	Extreme value theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Extreme value theory is a branch of statistics dealing with the extreme deviations from the median of probability distributions.
		Extreme value theory is important for assessing risk for highly unusual events, such as 100-year floods.
		Extreme value distributions are the limiting distributions for the minimum or the maximum of a very large collection of random observations from the same arbitrary distribution.

	Extreme value theory
		Extreme value theory is a branch of statistics dealing with the extreme deviations from the median of probability distribution s.
		Two approaches exist today: # Most common at this moment is the tail-fitting approach based on the second theorem in extreme value theory (Theorem II Pickands (1975), Balkema and de Haan (1974)).
		Extreme value theory is important for assessing risk for highly unusual events, such as 100-year flood s.

		A weaker version of this theorem is the boundedness theorem which states that a function ´´f´´(´´x´´) continuous in the closed interval [´´a´´,´´b´´] is bounded on the interval.
		We first prove the boundedness theorem, which is a step in the proof of the extrem value theorem.
		In general topology, the extreme value theorem is follows from the general fact that compactness is preserved under continuity, and the fact that a subset of the real line is compact if and only if it is both closed and bounded.

	Articles - Minimum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-10)
		The largest and the smallest element of a set are called extreme values, absolute extrema, or extreme records.
		If an infinite chain S is bounded, then the closure Cl(S) of the set will have a minimum and a maximum, which are the greatest lower bound and the least upper bound of the set S, and which either belong to S or are accumulation points of S.

		We look at the proof for the maximum, the minimum is very similar.
		Before proving the theorem, we outline the basic steps involved:
		Show f(x) is bounded if it is continuous over a closed interval.
