One of the most innovative and fruitful topics during the last decades was the introduction of generalized Pareto distributions in the univariate extreme value theory. Such a statistical modeling of extremes is now systematically developed in the multivariate framework. This comes together with a new spectral decomposition of multivariate distributions in univariate ones which makes multivariate questions more accessible.
