An exchangeable pair approach is commonly taken in the normal and non-normal approximation using Stein's method. It has been successfully used to identify the limiting distribution and provide an error of approximation. However, when the…

It is shown that the absolute constant in the Berry--Esseen inequality for i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables is strictly less than the Esseen constant, if $1\le n\le 500000$, where $n$ is a number of summands. This result is got both with…

Let $X_n=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}a_i\epsilon_{n-i}$, where the $\epsilon_i$ are i.i.d. with mean 0 and at least finite second moment, and the $a_i$ are assumed to satisfy $|a_i|=O(i^{-\beta})$ with $\beta >1/2$. When $1/2<\beta<1$, $X_n$ is…

We establish both uniform and nonuniform error bounds of the Berry-Esseen type in normal approximation under local dependence. These results are of an order close to the best possible if not best possible. They are more general or sharper…
