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
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).
