Functional second-order Gaussian Poincar\'e inequalities

Abstract

In this paper, we work in the framework of Hilbert-valued Wiener structures and derive a functional version of the second-order Gaussian Poincar\'e inequality that leads to abstract bounds for Gaussian process approximation in d2d_2 distance. Our abstract bounds are flexible and can be applied in various examples including functional Breuer-Major central limit theorems, shallow neural networks, and spatial statistics of SPDEs solutions.
