Abstract

The asymptotic behaviour of the residual life time at time $t$ is investigated (for $t \rightarrow \infty$). We derive weak limit laws and their domains of attraction and treat rates of convergence and moment convergence. The presentation exploits the close similarity with extreme value theory.
