Entropy and the Central Limit Theorem

open access: yesAnnals of Probability, 1986
The author establishes a strengthened central limit theorem for densities showing monotone convergence in the sense of relative entropy. The relative entropy is defined by \[ D_ n=\int f(x) \log f(x)/\phi (x)dx \] where f is the density function of a random variable, X, with finite variance and \(\phi\) is the normal density with the same mean and ...

Central Limit Theorems revisited

Statistics & Probability Letters, 2000
The authors prove four central limit theorems (CLT). The first CLT is for a triangular array of random elements taking values in a real separable Hilbert space, where the components of the array are row-wise independent and have finite second moments, the covariance operator of the row sum satisfies mild convergence requirements, and the array ...

Central limit theorems of pedigrees

Journal of Mathematical Biology, 1978
Two multivariate central limit theorems are proved for polygenic trait values over a pedigree or collection of pedigrees. These theorems presuppose Hardy-Weinberg and linkage equilibrium for all loci, absence of assortative mating and epistasis, and a small variance for each locus compared to the total variance over many loci.

Central Limit Theorem in the Functional Approach

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2013
The central limit theorem is proved within the framework of the functional approach for signal analysis. In this framework, a signal is modeled as a single function of time rather than a stochastic process. Distribution function, expectation, and all the familiar probabilistic parameters are built starting from this single function of time by resorting

A Counterexample in the Central Limit Theorem

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 1999
We construct a \(c_0\)-valued random variable \(X\) such that \((S_n/\sqrt{n})_{n\in N}\) has a convergent subsequence, but \(X\) does not satisfy the central limit theorem (CLT), thus give a counterexample against the subsequence rule in CLT.

Central Limit Theorems for Aggregate Efficiency

Operations Research, 2018
Applied researchers in the field of efficiency and productivity analysis often need to estimate and make inference about aggregate efficiency, such as industry efficiency or aggregate efficiency of a group of distinct firms within an industry (e.g., public versus private firms, regulated versus unregulated firms, etc.).

central limit theorems

2008
At the end of the 17th century, the mathematician Abraham de Moivre first used the normal distribution as an approximation for the percentage of successes in a large number of experiments. Later on, Laplace generalized his results, but it took 20th century mathematics to give an exact and complete description of this subject. So let me now describe the

Non-central Limit Theorems

1981
Here we present some non-trivial limit theorems where the limit is a non-Gaussian self-similar field. The results of the previous chapters may explain at a heuristic level why such results should hold. But a rigorous proof demands much extra work whose consequences may be interesting in themselves.
