In this paper we establish large deviation results on the number of extreme points of a homogeneous Poisson point process in the unit ball of R d . In particular, we deduce an almost-sure law of large numbers in any dimension. As an auxiliary result we prove strong localization of the extreme points in an annulus near the boundary of the ball.
