We show new estimates for the total variation and Wasserstein distances in the framework of the Breuer-Major theorem. The results are based on the combination of Stein's method for normal approximations and Malliavin calculus together with…

The autocovariance and cross-covariance functions naturally appear in many time series procedures (e.g., autoregression or prediction). Under assumptions, empirical versions of the autocovariance and cross-covariance are asymptotically…

The central limit theorem is one of the most fundamental results in probability and has been successfully extended to locally dependent data and strongly-mixing random fields. In this paper, we establish its rate of convergence for…

Using an approach recently developed by Nourdin and Poly, we improve the rate in an inequality for the total variation distance between two double Wiener-It\^o integrals originally due to Davydov and Martynova. An application to the rate of…

In this article, we consider the speed of the random walks in a (uniformly elliptic and i.i.d.) random environment (RWRE) under perturbation. We obtain the derivative of the speed of the RWRE w.r.t. the perturbation, under the assumption…

We obtain new bounds for the solution of the variance-gamma (VG) Stein equation that are of the correct form for approximations in terms of the Wasserstein and Kolmorogorov metrics. These bounds hold for all parameters values of the four…

Quantum random walks are constructed on operator spaces with the aid of matrix-space lifting, a type of ampliation intermediate between those provided by spatial and ultraweak tensor products. Using a form of Wiener-Ito decomposition, a…

We present a way to use Stein's method in order to bound the Wasserstein distance of order $2$ between two measures $\nu$ and $\mu$ supported on $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\mu$ is the reversible measure of a diffusion process. In order to…

We propose a generalization of the Wasserstein distance of order 1 to quantum spin systems on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, which we call specific quantum $W_1$ distance. The proposal is based on the $W_1$ distance for qudits of [De Palma et…
