Abstract
Let {ξ(t)}t∈ [0,h] be a stationary
Gaussian process with covariance function r such that r(t)
=1-C|t|α +o(|t|α) as t→0. We give a new and direct
proof of a result originally obtained by Pickands,
on the asymptotic behaviour as u → ∞ of the
probability P{supt ∈ [0,h] ξ(t)>u } that the process ξ
exceeds the level u . As a by-product, we obtain a new
expression for Pickands constant Hα.
