Invariance principles for sums of extreme sequential order statistics attracted to Lévy processes

Abstract: The paper establishes strong convergence results for the joint convergence of sequential order statistics. There exists an explicit construction such that almost sure convergence to extremal processes follows. If a partial sum of rowwise i.i.d. random variables is attracted by a non-Gaussian limit law then the results apply to invariance principles for sums of extreme sequential order statistics which turn out to be almost surely convergent or convergent in probability in D[0,1]. Under certain conditions they converge to the non-Gaussian part of the Lévy process. In addition, we get an approximation of these Lévy processes by a finite number of extremal processes.
