théorie des valeurs extrêmes Explanation: this may sound a little too obvious, but I would nevertheless translate it literally, as above. If it had been "extreme value law", you could have translated it by "loi des valeurs extremes". But a law is not the same as a theory. It may be part of a theory, but a theory is a whole system, not just a law; it is a "collection of propositions to illustrate the principles of a subject" as my dictionary tells me. I have found a few sites that use the expression I propose. Boulier, J.-F., R. Dalaud and F. M. Longin. 1997. Application de la Theorie des Valeurs Extremes aux Marches Fianciers. Banques et Marches 32, 5-14. (http://www.gloriamundi.org/var/pub.html) STRESS TESTING ET THEORIE DES VALEURS EXTREMES Application de la théorie des valeurs extrêmes au calcul de la VaR.
