In this work, we provide a $(n/m)^{-1/2}$-rate finite sample Berry-Esseen bound for $m$-dependent high-dimensional random vectors over the class of hyper-rectangles. This bound imposes minimal assumptions on the random vectors such as…

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 prove weak laws of large numbers and central limit theorems of Lindeberg type for empirical centres of mass (empirical Fr\'echet means) of independent non-identically distributed random variables taking values in Riemannian manifolds. In…

An exchangeable pair approach is commonly taken in the normal and non-normal approximation using Stein's method. It has been successfully used to identify the limiting distribution and provide an error of approximation. However, when the…

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.

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\text{GL}_d(\mathbb R)$ and denote by $S_n:= g_n \cdots g_1$ the associated random matrix product, where $g_j$'s are i.i.d.'s with law $\mu$. We study statistical properties of random variables of the…

We propose an estimator for the singular vectors of high-dimensional low-rank matrices corrupted by additive subgaussian noise, where the noise matrix is allowed to have dependence within rows and heteroskedasticity between them. We prove…
