An Edgeworth-type expansion is established for the entropy distance to the class of normal distributions of sums of i.i.d. random variables or vectors, satisfying minimal moment conditions.
A large class of statistics can be formulated as smooth functions of sample means of random vectors. In this paper, we propose a general partial Cram\'{e}r's condition (GPCC) and apply it to establish the validity of the Edgeworth expansion…

We establish the validity of the empirical Edgeworth expansion (EE) for a studentized trimmed mean, under the sole condition that the underlying distribution function of the observations satisfies a local smoothness condition near the two…
Consider the sum $Z = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \lambda_n (\eta_n - \mathbb{E}\eta_n)$, where $\eta_n$ are i.i.d.~gamma random variables with shape parameter $r > 0$, and the $\lambda_n$'s are predetermined weights. We study the asymptotic behavior…
Motivated, roughly, by comparing the mean and median of an IID sum of bounded lattice random variables, we develop explicit and effective bounds on the errors involved in the one-term Edgeworth expansion for such sums.
