Abstract

Let νM1([0,[)\nu\in M^1([0,\infty[) be a fixed probability measure. For each dimension p\bNp\in\b N, let (Xnp)n1(X_n^p)_{n\ge1} be i.i.d. \bRp\b R^p-valued radial random variables with radial distribution ν\nu. We derive two central limit theorems for X1p+...+Xnp2 \|X_1^p+...+X_n^p\|_2 for n,pn,p\to\infty with normal limits. The first CLT for n>>pn>>p follows from known estimates of convergence in the CLT on \bRp\b R^p, while the second CLT for n<<pn<<p will be a consequence of asymptotic properties of Bessel convolutions. Both limit theorems are considered also for U(p)U(p)-invariant random walks on the space of p×qp\times q matrices instead of \bRp\b R^p for pp\to\infty and fixed dimension qq.
