Donsker's theorem in {Wasserstein}-1 distance

Probability 2025-04-29 v1

Abstract

We compute the Wassertein-1 (or Kolmogorov-Rubinstein) distance between a random walk in RdR^d and the Brownian motion. The proof is based on a new estimate of the Lipschitz modulus of the solution of the Stein's equation. As an application, we can evaluate the rate of convergence towards the local time at 0 of the Brownian motion.
