A multivariate central limit theorem for Lipschitz and smooth test functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We provide an abstract multivariate central limit theorem with the Lindeberg-type error bounded in terms of Lipschitz functions (Wasserstein 1-distance) or functions with bounded second or third derivatives. The result is proved by means of Stein's method. For sums of i.i.d. random vectors with finite third absolute moment, the optimal rate of convergence is established (that is, we eliminate the logarithmic factor in the case of Lipschitz test functions). We indicate how the result could be applied to certain other dependence structures, but do not derive bounds explicitly.
