Consider a stationary, weakly dependent sequence of random variables. Given only mild conditions, allowing for polynomial decay of the autocovariance function, we show a Berry-Esseen bound of optimal order $n^{-1/2}$ for studentized…
This paper provides a quantitative version of de Finetti law of large numbers. Given an infinite sequence $\{X_n\}_{n \geq 1}$ of exchangeable Bernoulli variables, it is well-known that $\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i = 1}^n X_i…
One of the central objects in the theory of optimal transport is the Brenier map: the unique monotone transformation which pushes forward an absolutely continuous probability law onto any other given law. A line of recent work has analyzed…
We established the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for stopped sums of a class of martingale difference sequences.
We suggest approximating the distribution of the sum of independent and identically distributed random variables with a Pareto-like tail by combining extreme value approximations for the largest summands with a normal approximation for the…
Consider a discrete-time martingale, and let $V^2$ be its normalized quadratic variation. As $V^2$ approaches 1, and provided that some Lindeberg condition is satisfied, the distribution of the rescaled martingale approaches the Gaussian…
We extend the central limit theorem under the Dedecker-Rio condition to adapted stationary and ergodic sequences of random variables taking values in a class of smooth Banach spaces. This result applies to the case of random variables…
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…
A central limit theorem is established for a sum of random variables belonging to a sequence of random fields. The fields are assumed to have zero mean conditional on the past history and to satisfy certain conditional $\alpha$-mixing…
We develop Stein's method for $\alpha$-stable approximation with $\alpha\in(0,1]$, continuing the recent line of research by Xu \cite{lihu} and Chen, Nourdin and Xu \cite{C-N-X} in the case $\alpha\in(1,2).$ The main results include an…
We prove a multivariate central limit theorem with explicit error bound on a non-smooth function distance for sums of bounded decomposable $d$-dimensional random vectors. The decomposition structure is similar to that of Barbour, Karo\'nski…
We study the free central limit theorem for not necessarily identically distributed free random variables where the limiting distribution is the semicircle distribution. Starting from an estimate for the Kolmogorov distance between the…
We study the number of occurrences of any fixed vincular permutation pattern. We show that this statistics on uniform random permutations is asymptotically normal and describe the speed of convergence. To prove this central limit theorem,…
For a measure preserving transformation $T$ of a probability space $(X,\mathcal F,\mu)$ we investigate almost sure and distributional convergence of random variables of the form $$x \to \frac{1}{C_n} \sum_{i_1<n,...,i_d<n}…
We explore properties of the $\chi^2$ and more general R\'enyi (Tsallis) distances to the normal law. In particular we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence to the normal law in the central limit theorem using…
The problem of testing two simple hypotheses in a general probability space is considered. For a fixed type-I error probability, the best exponential decay rate of the type-II error probability is investigated. In regular asymptotic cases…
We completely characterize the class of univariate distributions allowing for a Stein kernel and illustrate our result by means of some concrete distributions. Moreover, we apply our findings to prove a quantitative version of the central…
The algebraic stability theorem for $\mathbb{R}$-persistence modules is a fundamental result in topological data analysis. We present a stability theorem for $n$-dimensional rectangle decomposable persistence modules up to a constant…
We study the limiting distribution of a volatility target index as the discretisation time step converges to zero. Two limit theorems (a strong law of large numbers and a central limit theorem) are established, and as an application, the…
The study of discrete-time stochastic processes on the half-line with mean drift at $x$ given by $\mu_1 (x) \to 0$ as $x \to \infty$ is known as Lamperti's problem. We give sharp almost-sure bounds for processes of this type in the case…
