Normal approximation by Stein's method under sublinear expectations

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Peng (2008)(cite{P08b}) proved the Central Limit Theorem under a sublinear expectation: extit{Let (Xi)ige1 be a sequence of i.i.d random variables under a sublinear expectation hatmathbfE with hatmathbfE[X1]=hatmathbfE[X1]=0 and hatmathbfE[|X1|3]<infty. Setting Wn:=fracX1+cdots+Xnsqrtn, we have, for each bounded and Lipschitz function varphi, [lim_{n ightarrowinfty}�igg|hat{mathbf{E}}[varphi(W_n)]-mathcal{N}_G(varphi)�igg|=0,] where mathcalNG is the G-normal distribution with G(a)=frac12hatmathbfE[aX12], ainmathbbR.} In this paper, we shall give an estimate of the rate of convergence of this CLT by Stein's method under sublinear expectations: extit{Under the same conditions as above, there exists alphain(0,1) depending on underlinesigma and overlinesigma, and a positive constant Calpha,G depending on alpha,underlinesigma and overlinesigma such that [sup_{|varphi|_{Lip}le1}�igg|hat{mathbf{E}}[varphi(W_n)]-mathcal{N}_G(varphi)�igg|leq C_{alpha,G}frac{hat{mathbf{E}}[|X_1|^{2+alpha}]}{n^{frac{alpha}{2}}},] where overlinesigma2=hatmathbfE[X12], underlinesigma2=hatmathbfE[X12]>0 and mathcalNG is the G-normal distribution with [G(a)=frac{1}{2}hat{mathbf{E}}[aX_1^2]=frac{1}{2}(overline{sigma}^2a^+-underline{sigma}^2a^-), ain mathbb{R}.]}
