A Berry-Esseen bound is obtained for self-normalized martingales under the assumption of finite moments. The bound coincides with the classical Berry-Esseen bound for standardized martingales. An example is given to show the optimality of…
A Chernoff-type distribution is a nonnormal distribution defined by the slope at zero of the greatest convex minorant of a two-sided Brownian motion with a polynomial drift. While a Chernoff-type distribution is known to appear as the…

Stein's method is used to study discrete representations of multidimensional distributions that arise as approximations of states of quantum harmonic oscillators. These representations model how quantum effects result from the interaction…
It is expected that the statistical fluctuations of local observables in large quantum systems obey the central limit theorem, and approximate a normal distribution as their size grows. Here, we prove a version of the Berry-Esseen theorem…
In the paper [25], written in collaboration with Gesine Reinert, we proved a universality principle for the Gaussian Wiener chaos. In the present work, we aim at providing an original example of application of this principle in the…
