On normal approximations of distributions in terms of dependency graphs (Q582681)

The authors interpret the bounds on the error in the normal approximation of sums of independent random variables introduced by \textit{C. Stein} [Approximate computation of expectations. IMS-Lect. Notes (1986)] in terms of dependency graphs. In this manner they improve a central limit theorem of \textit{M. B. Petrovskaya} and \textit{A. M. Leontovich} [Theory Probab. Appl. 27, 815-825 (1982; Zbl 0559.60069)]. They also obtain bounds on the rate of convergence.
