Foreword
Paul Deheuvels is well known for his work in mathematical statistics and probability, especially in the area of limit theorems. Some of the topics on which he has made significant and lasting contributions are extreme and record value theory, renewal theory, copulas, strong approximations, Erdős-Rényi laws, empirical and quantile processes, nonparametric function estimation and Karhunen-Loève expansions. Through his consulting work Paul Deheuvels has also made substantial contributions to applied statistics. Paul Deheuvels has had a major impact on statistics in France. Most importantly, in 1980 he founded the statistics research laboratory at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie in Paris (the LSTA, Laboratoire de Statistique Théorique et Appliquée), and served as its director until 2013. He has guided a large number of doctoral students. Many of them are now
