Different estimators of high quantiles, such as x c p proposed in [N.M. Markovitch, U.R. Krieger, The estimation of heavy-tailed probability density functions, their mixtures and quantiles. Computer Networks 40 (3) (2002) 459-474], Weissman's estimator x w p and the POT-method are considered. Regard

We establish estimators for the tail index of heavy-tailed distributions. A large deviation principle is proved. An estimator with U-statistic structure is constructed and its asymptotic normality is established. An estimator based on re-sampling procedure is developed and this provides a possibilit
