Extremes of vector-valued Gaussian processes: exact asymptotics

Let $\{X_i(t),t\ge0\}, 1\le i\le n$ be mutually independent centered Gaussian processes with almost surely continuous sample paths. We derive the exact asymptotics of $P\left(\exists_{t \in [0,T]} \forall_{i=1 ... n} X_i(t)> u \right)$ as $u\to\infty$, for both locally stationary $X_i$'s and $X_i$'s with a non-constant generalized variance function. Additionally, we analyze properties of multidimensional counterparts of the Pickands and Piterbarg constants, that appear in the derived asymptotics. Important by-products of this contribution are the vector-process extensions of the Piterbarg inequality, the Borell-TIS inequality, the Slepian lemma and the Pickands-Piterbarg lemma which are the main pillars of the extremal theory of vector-valued Gaussian processes.
