We prove the Lindeberg--Feller central limit theorem without using characteristic functions or Taylor expansions, but instead by measuring how far a distribution is from the standard normal distribution according to the $2$-Wasserstein…
We study the statistics of the Mallows measure on permutations in the limit pioneered by Starr (2009). Our main result is the local central limit theorem for its height function. We also re-derive versions of the law of large numbers and…
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…
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…
We provide new bounds for the rate of convergence of the multivariate Central Limit Theorem in Wasserstein distances of order $p \geq 2$. In particular, we obtain what we conjecture to be the asymptotically optimal rate whenever the density…
Under certain general conditions, we prove that the stable central limit theorem holds in the total variation distance and get its optimal convergence rate for all $\alpha \in (0,2)$. Our method is by two measure decompositions, one step…
We correct a condition in a result of Johnson and Samworth (Bernoulli 11 (2005) 829--845) concerning convergence to stable laws in Mallows distance. We also give an improved version of this result, setting it in the more familiar context of…
This article is dedicated to the estimation of Wasserstein distances and Wasserstein costs between two distinct continuous distributions $F$ and $G$ on $\mathbb R$. The estimator is based on the order statistics of (possibly dependent)…
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…
By the Lindeberg principle, we develop in this paper an approximation to one dimensional (possibly) asymmetric $\alpha$-stable distributions with $\alpha \in (0,2)$ in the smooth Wasserstein distance. It is the first time that the general…
This paper studies the asymptotic distribution of descents $\des(w)$ in a permutation $w$, and its inverse, distributed according to the Mallows measure. The Mallows measure is a non-uniform probability measure on permutations introduced to…
In this paper, we derive asymptotic results for L^1-Wasserstein distance between the distribution function and the corresponding empirical distribution function of a stationary sequence. Next, we give some applications to dynamical systems…
When the underlying random variables are Gaussian, the classical Central Limit Theorem (CLT) is trivial, but the functional CLT is not. The objective of the paper is to investigate the functional CLT for stationary Gaussian processes in the…
We present a way to use Stein's method in order to bound the Wasserstein distance of order $2$ between two measures $\nu$ and $\mu$ supported on $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $\mu$ is the reversible measure of a diffusion process. In order to…
In this article, we will consider Wishart Matrices with correlated entries, but with a strictly log-concave law. It has been shown by A.Pajor and L.Pastur that the empirical measures of such matrices converges. We will show, under some…
The Central Limit Theorem states that, in the limit of a large number of terms, an appropriately scaled sum of independent random variables yields another random variable whose probability distribution tends to a stable distribution. The…
We provide rates of convergence in the central limit theorem in terms of projective criteria for adapted stationary sequences of centered random variables taking values in Banach spaces, with finite moment of order $p \in ]2,3]$ as soon as…
We established the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for stopped sums of a class of martingale difference sequences.
The central limit theorem (CLT) is one of the most fundamental results in probability; and establishing its rate of convergence has been a key question since the 1940s. For independent random variables, a series of recent works established…
We establish effective convergence rates in the Doeblin-Lenstra law, describing the limiting distribution of approximation coefficients arising from continued fraction convergents of a typical real number. More generally, we prove…
