Abstract

We present a functional law of the iterated logarithm for the Dekkers-Einmahl-de Haan tail index estimator based on the kn upper order statistics of a sample of size n from a Pareto-type distribution, with kn satisfying kn→∞ together with ./GNST_A_8832640_O_XML_IMAGES/GNST_A_8832640_O_ILM0002.gif  Our arguments are based on limiting theorems for the tail empirical processes due to Deheuvels and Mason Deheuvels and Mason and Deheuvels, Haeusler and Mason (1988).
Keywords: Functional laws of the iterated logarithm; empirical distribution function; empirical quantile funcition; order statistics
