Suppose that the (normalised) partial sum of a stationary sequence converges to a standard normal random variable. Given sufficiently moments, when do we have a rate of convergence of $n^{-1/2}$ in the uniform metric, in other words, when…

Let $(Z_n)$ be a supercritical branching process in a random environment $\xi = (\xi_n)$. We establish a Berry-Esseen bound and a Cram\'er's type large deviation expansion for $\log Z_n$ under the annealed law $\mathbb P$. We also improve…

For uniformly expanding maps on the interval, analogous versions of the Berry-Ess\'een theorem are known but only with an unexplicit upper bound in $O(1/\sqrt{n})$ without any constants being specified. In this paper, we use the recent…

In this paper, we consider partial sums of triangular martingale differences weighted by random variables drawn uniformly on the sphere, and globally independent of the martingale differences. Starting from the so-called principle of…

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…
