Due to the effort of a number of authors, the value c_u of the absolute constant factor in the uniform Berry--Esseen (BE) bound for sums of independent random variables has been gradually reduced to 0.4748 in the iid case and 0.5600 in the…
We will prove the Berry-Esseen theorem for the number counting function of the circular $\beta$-ensemble (C$\beta$E), which will imply the central limit theorem for the number of points in arcs of the unit circle in mesoscopic and…
We establish a Berry--Esseen bound for general multivariate nonlinear statistics by developing a new multivariate-type randomized concentration inequality. The bound is the best possible for many known statistics. As applications,…
Let $T$ be a general sampling statistic that can be written as a linear statistic plus an error term. Uniform and non-uniform Berry--Esseen type bounds for $T$ are obtained. The bounds are the best possible for many known statistics.…
We consider a branching random walk on $d$-dimensional real space with immigration in a time-dependent random environment. Let $Z_n(\mathbf t)$ be the so-called partition function of the process, namely, the moment generating function of…

Berry-Esseen-type bounds for total variation and relative entropy distances to the normal law are established for the sums of non-i.i.d. random variables.
New nonuniform Berry--Esseen-type bounds for sums of independent random variables are obtained, motivated by recent studies concerning such bounds for nonlinear statistics. The proofs are based on the Chen--Shao concentration techniques…
This manuscript studies the Gaussian approximation of the coordinate-wise maximum of self-normalized statistics in high-dimensional settings. We derive an explicit Berry-Esseen bound under weak assumptions on the absolute moments. When the…
We adapt Stein's method to obtain Berry--Esseen type error bounds in the multivariate central limit theorem for non-stationary processes generated by time-dependent compositions of uniformly expanding dynamical systems. In a particular case…
A gem of classical probability, the Berry-Esseen theorem provides a non-asymptotic form of the central limit theorem. This note gives a friendly and intuitive exposition of the classical Fourier-analytic proof of Esseen's smoothing…
An exact upper bound on the Winsorised-tilted mean of a symmetric random variable in terms of its second moment is given. Such results are used in work on nonuniform Berry--Esseen-type bounds for general nonlinear statistics.
We give estimates on the rate of convergence in the Boolean central limit theorem for the L\'evy distance. In the case of measures with bounded support we obtain a sharp estimate by giving a qualitative description of this convergence.
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…
In the context of bounding probability of small deviation, there are limited general tools. However, such bounds have been widely applied in graph theory and inventory management. We introduce a common approach to substantially sharpen such…
We provide a Lyapunov type bound in the multivariate central limit theorem for sums of independent, but not necessarily identically distributed random vectors. The error in the normal approximation is estimated for certain classes of sets,…
We obtain Berry-Esseen-type bounds for the sum of random variables with a dependency graph and uniformly bounded moments of order $\delta \in (2,\infty]$ using a Fourier transform approach. Our bounds improve the state-of-the-art in the…
In this paper, a new technique is introduced to obtain non-uniform Berry-Esseen bounds of normal and nonnormal approximation for unbounded exchangeable pairs. This technique does not rely on the concentration inequalities developed by Chen…
We give a new, self-contained proof of the multidimensional central limit theorem using the technique of ``doubling variables," which is traditionally used to prove uniqueness of solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs). Our…
Certain smoothing inequalities were proposed in the recent paper posted on arXiv at arxiv:1301.2828 in order to lessen the very large gap between the best correctly established upper and lower bounds on the constant factor in the nonuniform…
