This paper proves a Berry--Esseen theorem for sample quantiles of strongly-mixing random variables under a polynomial mixing rate. The rate of normal approximation is shown to be $O(n^{-1/2})$ as $n\to\infty$, where $n$ denotes the sample…

Let $\{{X}_k\}_{k\geq\mathbb{Z}}$ be a stationary sequence. Given $p\in(2,3]$ moments and a mild weak dependence condition, we show a Berry-Esseen theorem with optimal rate $n^{p/2-1}$. For $p\geq4$, we also show a convergence rate of…

We introduce a new family of distributions to approximate $\mathbb {P}(W\in A)$ for $A\subset\{...,-2,-1,0,1,2,...\}$ and $W$ a sum of independent integer-valued random variables $\xi_1$, $\xi_2$, $...,$ $\xi_n$ with finite second moments,…

A gem of classical probability, the Berry-Esseen theorem provides a non-asymptotic form of the central limit theorem. This note gives a friendly and intuitive exposition of the classical Fourier-analytic proof of Esseen's smoothing…

It is shown that the absolute constant in the Berry--Esseen inequality for i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables is strictly less than the Esseen constant, if $1\le n\le 500000$, where $n$ is a number of summands. This result is got both with…
