### Minima and maxima of elliptical arrays and spherical processes

Enkelejd Hashorva

#### Abstract

In this paper, we investigate first the asymptotics of the minima of elliptical triangular arrays. Motivated by the findings of Kabluchko (Extremes 14 (2011) 285–310), we discuss further the asymptotic behaviour of the maxima of elliptical triangular arrays with marginal distribution functions in the Gumbel or Weibull max-domain of attraction. We present an application concerning the asymptotics of the maximum and the minimum of independent spherical processes.
