We give sufficient Gordin-type criteria for the iterated (enhanced) weak invariance principle to hold for deterministic dynamical systems. Such an invariance principle is intrinsically related to the interpretation of stochastic integrals.…

We prove a deviation bound for the maximum of partial sums of functions of $\alpha$-dependent sequences as defined in Dedecker, Gou{\"e}zel and Merlev{\`e}de (2010). As a consequence, we extend the Rosenthal inequality of Rio (2000) for…
