Central limit theorems and asymptotic properties of the minimum-contrast estimators of the drift parameter in linear stochastic evolution equations driven by fractional Brownian motion are studied. Both singular ($H < \frac{1}{2})$ and…

Statistical inference for non-stationary data is hindered by the failure of classical central limit theorems (CLTs), not least because there is no fixed Gaussian limit to converge to. To resolve this, we introduce relative weak convergence,…

For martingales with a wide range of integrability, we will quantify the rate of convergence of the central limit theorem via Wasserstein distances of order $r$, $1\le r\le 3$. Our bounds are in terms of Lyapunov's coefficients and the…
