Let Wi, i ∈ N, be independent copies of a zero-mean Gaussian process {W (t), t ∈ R d } with stationary increments and variance σ 2 (t). Independently of Wi, letδU i be a Poisson point process on the real line with intensity e −y dy. We show that the law of the random family of functions {Vi(·), i ∈ N}, where Vi(t) = Ui + Wi(t) − σ 2 (t)/2, is translation invariant. In particular, the process η(t) =Vi(t) is a stationary max-stable process with standard Gumbel margins. The process η arises as a limit of a suitably normalized and rescaled pointwise maximum of n i.i.d. stationary Gaussian processes as n → ∞ if and only if W is a (nonisotropic) fractional Brownian motion on R d . Under suitable conditions on W , the process η has a mixed moving maxima representation.
