Quantitative bounds for high-dimensional non-linear functionals of Gaussian processes
Abstract
In this paper, we establish explicit quantitative Berry-Esseen bounds in the hyper-rectangle distance , the convex distance and the -Wasserstein distance for high-dimensional, non-linear functionals of Gaussian processes, allowing for strong dependence between variables. Our main result demonstrates that, under a smoothness assumption, the convergence rate under is sub-polynomial in the dimension and polynomial under and . To the best of our knowledge, our results under provide the first explicit sub-polynomial bound for high-dimensional, non-linear functionals of Gaussian processes beyond the i.i.d. setting. Building on this, we derive explicit Berry-Esseen bounds under both and for multiple statistical examples, such as the method of moments, empirical characteristic functions, empirical moment-generating functions, and functional limit theorems in high-dimensional settings.
