We revisit extending the Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance between probability distributions to the multidimensional setting and make new arguments about the proper way to approach this generalization. Our proposed formulation maximizes the…

In this note we prove that, for infinitely divisible laws, convergence of the fourth moment to 3 is sufficient to ensure convergence in law to the Gaussian distribution. Our results include infinitely divisible measures with respect to…

We prove a bound for the Wasserstein distance between vectors of smooth complex random variables and complex Gaussians in the framework of complex Markov diffusion generators. For the special case of chaotic eigenfunctions, this bound can…

We study the free central limit theorem for not necessarily identically distributed free random variables where the limiting distribution is the semicircle distribution. Starting from an estimate for the Kolmogorov distance between the…

Here I present the analytic form of two common distance metrics, the symmetrised Kullback-Leibler Divergence and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic, as well as an extension of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic for comparing theoretical gamma…

Upper bounds on the Kolmogorov distance (and, equivalently in this case, on the total variation distance) between the Student distribution with p degrees of freedom (SD_p) and the standard normal distribution are obtained. These bounds are…

The projected normal distribution, also known as the angular Gaussian distribution, is obtained by dividing a multivariate normal random variable $\mathbf{x}$ by its norm $\sqrt{\mathbf{x}^T \mathbf{x}}$. The resulting random variable…

We obtain estimates for the weighted $L^1$-norm of the difference of two probability solutions to Kolmogorov equations in terms of the difference of the diffusion matrices and the drifts. Unlike the previously known results, our estimate…

We consider distributions on $\mathbb{R}$ that can be written as the sum of a non-zero discrete distribution and an absolutely continuous distribution. We show that such a distribution is quasi-infinitely divisible if and only if its…

We survey some basic results on the Gromov-Prohorov distance between metric measure spaces. (We do not claim any new results.) We give several different definitions and show the equivalence of them. We also show that convergence in the…

Let $X$ be a centered random variable with unit variance, zero third moment, and such that $E[X^4] \ge 3$. Let $\{F_n : n\geq 1\}$ denote a normalized sequence of homogeneous sums of fixed degree $d\geq 2$, built from independent copies of…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for symmetric infinitely divisible distribution to have Gaussian component. The result can be applied to approximation the distribution of finite sums of random variables. Particularly, it shows…

We establish general upper bounds on the Kolmogorov distance between two probability distributions in terms of the distance between these distributions as measured with respect to the Wasserstein or smooth Wasserstein metrics. These bounds…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions to characterize the convergence in distribution of a sequence of arbitrary random variables to a probability distribution which is the invariant measure of a diffusion process. This class of…

For a pair of random Gaussian integers chosen uniformly and independently from the set of Gaussian integers of norm $x$ or less as $x$ goes to infinity, we find asymptotics for the average norm of their greatest common divisor, with…

In this paper we provide a new explicit bound on the total variation distance between a standardized partial sum of random variables belonging to a finite sum of Wiener chaoses and a standard normal random variable. We apply our result to…

In this paper, we consider partial sums of martingale differences weighted by random variables drawn uniformly on the sphere, and globally independent of the martingale differences. Combining Lindeberg's method and a series of arguments due…

In this paper, we derive formulas for the analytical calculation of the moments of the distance between two uniformly and independently distributed random points in an $n$-sided regular polygon. A number of closed form expressions is…

This paper establishes an upper bound for the Kolmogorov distance between the maximum of a high-dimensional vector of smooth Wiener functionals and the maximum of a Gaussian random vector. As a special case, we show that the maximum of…

An explicit bound is given for the Kolmogorov distance between a mixture of normal distributions and a normal distribution with properly chosen parameter values. A random variable X has a mixture of normal distributions if its conditional…
