This paper derives central limit and bootstrap theorems for probabilities that sums of centered high-dimensional random vectors hit hyperrectangles and sparsely convex sets. Specifically, we derive Gaussian and bootstrap approximations for probabilities $Pr(n^{-1/2}sum_{i=1}^n X_iin A)$ where $X_1,dots,X_n$ are independent random vectors in $mathbb{R}^p$ and $A$ is a hyperrectangle, or, more generally, a sparsely convex set, and show that the approximation error converges to zero even if $p=p_nto infty$ as $n to infty$ and $p gg n$; in particular, $p$ can be as large as $O(e^{Cn^c})$ for some constants $c,C>0$. The result holds uniformly over all hyperrectangles, or more generally, sparsely convex sets, and does not require any restriction on the correlation structure among coordinates of $X_i$. Sparsely convex sets are sets that can be represented as intersections of many convex sets whose indicator functions depend only on a small subset of their arguments, with hyperrectangles being a special case.

We consider the problem of optimal transportation with general cost between a empirical measure and a general target probability on R d , with d $ge$ 1. We extend results in [19] and prove asymptotic stability of both optimal transport maps and poten tials for a large class of costs in R d. We derive a central limit theorem (CLT) towards a Gaussian distribution for the empirical transportation cost under minimal assumptions, with a new proof based on the Efron-Stein inequality and on the sequential compactness of the closed unit ball in L 2 (P) for the weak topology. We provide also CLTs for empirical Wassertsein distances in the special case of potential costs | $bullet$ | p , p > 1.
For a joint model-based and design-based inference, we establish functional central limit theorems for the Horvitz-Thompson empirical process and the Hajek empirical process centered by their finite population mean as well as by their super-populatio n mean in a survey sampling framework. The results apply to single-stage unequal probability sampling designs and essentially only require conditions on higher order correlations. We apply our main results to a Hadamard differentiable statistical functional and illustrate its limit behavior by means of a computer simulation.
Wasserstein barycenters and variance-like criteria based on the Wasserstein distance are used in many problems to analyze the homogeneity of collections of distributions and structural relationships between the observations. We propose the estimation of the quantiles of the empirical process of Wassersteins variation using a bootstrap procedure. We then use these results for statistical inference on a distribution registration model for general deformation functions. The tests are based on the variance of the distributions with respect to their Wassersteins barycenters for which we prove central limit theorems, including bootstr

In this paper, we develop a general approach to proving global and local uniform limit theorems for the Horvitz-Thompson empirical process arising from complex sampling designs. Global theorems such as Glivenko-Cantelli and Donsker theorems, and loca l theorems such as local asymptotic modulus and related ratio-type limit theorems are proved for both the Horvitz-Thompson empirical process, and its calibrated version.

Multivariate distributions are explored using the joint distributions of marginal sample quantiles. Limit theory for the mean of a function of order statistics is presented. The results include a multivariate central limit theorem and a strong law of large numbers. A result similar to Bahadurs representation of quantiles is established for the mean of a function of the marginal quantiles. In particular, it is shown that [sqrt{n}Biggl(frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^nphibigl(X_{n:i}^{(1)},...,X_{n:i}^{(d)}bigr)-bar{gamma}Biggr)=frac{1}{sqrt{n}}sum_{i=1}^nZ_{n,i}+mathrm{o}_P(1)] as $nrightarrowinfty$, where $bar{gamma}$ is a constant and $Z_{n,i}$ are i.i.d. random variables for each $n$. This leads to the central limit theorem. Weak convergence to a Gaussian process using equicontinuity of functions is indicated. The results are established under very general conditions. These conditions are shown to be satisfied in many commonly occurring situations.
