03 - Stein's method and weak convergence on Wiener space - Giovanni PECCATI

We will show taht one can combine Malliavin calculus with Stein's method, in order to derive explicit bounds in the Gaussian and Gamma approximations of arbitrary regular functionals of a given Gaussian field (here, the notion of regularity is in the sense of Malliavin derivability). When applied to random variables belonging to a fixed Wiener chaos, our approach generalizes, refines proved (in several papers, from 2005 to 2007) by Nourdin, Nualart, Ortiz-Latorre, Peccati and Tudor. We shall discuss some connections with the classic method of moments and cumulants. As an application, we deduce explicit Berry-Esseen bounds in the Breuer-Major Central limit theorem for subordinated functionals of a fractional Brownian motion. This talk is based on joint works with I. Nourdin (Paris VI). Giovanni PECCATI. Université de Paris 6.
