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…

The empirical mean of $n$ independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables $(X_1,\dots,X_n)$ can be viewed as a suitably normalized scalar projection of the $n$-dimensional random vector $X^{(n)}\doteq(X_1,\dots,X_n)$ in…

By a classical theorem of Koksma the sequence of fractional parts $(\{x^n\})_{n \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed for almost all values of $x$. In the present paper we obtain an exact quantitative version of Koksma's theorem, by calculating…

We present an estimator of the covariance matrix $\Sigma$ of random $d$-dimensional vector from an i.i.d. sample of size $n$. Our sole assumption is that this vector satisfies a bounded $L^p-L^2$ moment assumption over its one-dimensional…

The celebrated Erd\H{o}s--Kac theorem says, roughly speaking, that the values of additive functions satisfying certain mild hypotheses are normally distributed. In the intervening years, similar normal distribution laws have been shown to…
