Abstract:
Let ξ1=(ξ1i,…,ξ1k),…,ξn be a sequence of independent random variables with values in Rk and with common distribuition P. Suppose that M|ξ1i|3<∞, i=1,…,k. The distribution of the sum ∑ni−1ξi is Pn. Denote by Qn the k-dimensional normal distribution whose first find second moments coincide with those of Pn respectively. Let E′m be the class of all subsets of Rk of the form {x:(l1,x)⩽a1,…,(lm,x)⩽am}, lj∈Rk, aj∈R, j=1,…,m, where (lj,x) denotes as usual the inner product of lj and x∈Rk. Finally let Em″ be the class of all measurable subsets of R^k with the following property: for every E\in\mathscr E''_m there exists a set E_1\in\mathscr E''_m such that E\Delta E_1 belongs to the boundary of E_1, \Delta denoting the symmetric difference.
\textit{Theorem. The following inequality holds
\sup_{E\in\mathscr E''_m}|P^n(E)-Q_n(E)|\le C(k,m)\sup_{l\ne0}\frac{\mathbf M|(l,\xi_1-\mu)|^3}{\mathbf M^{3/2}(l,\xi_1-\mu)^2}n^{-1/2},
where \mu=\mathbf M\xi_1 and C(k,m) is a constant depending only on k and m}.
