We prove that an $m$ out of $n$ bootstrap procedure for Chatterjee's rank correlation is consistent whenever asymptotic normality of Chatterjee's rank correlation can be established. In particular, we prove that $m$ out of $n$ bootstrap…

We prove that a suitably de-biased version of Chatterjee's rank correlation based on i.i.d. copies of a random vector $(X,Y)$ is asymptotically normal whenever $Y$ is not almost surely constant. No further conditions on the joint…
