In this paper we establish a framework for normal approximation for white noise functionals by Stein's method and Hida calculus. Our work is inspired by that of Nourdin and Peccati (Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 145, 75-118, 2009), who…

We present a new approach, inspired by Stein's method, to prove a central limit theorem (CLT) for linear statistics of $\beta$-ensembles in the one-cut regime. Compared with the previous proofs, our result requires less regularity on the…

By the continuous mapping theorem, if a sequence of $d$-dimensional random vectors $(\mathbf{W}_n)_{n\geq1}$ converges in distribution to a multivariate normal random variable $\Sigma^{1/2}\mathbf{Z}$, then the sequence of random variables…

In this paper, a product formula of Hermite polynomials is given and then the relation between the real Wiener-It\^{o} chaos and the complex Wiener-It\^{o} chaos (or: multiple integrals) is shown. By this relation and the known multivariate…
