Abstract We consider sequences of random variables of the type Sn = n−1/2 nk=1 {f (Xk ) − E[f (Xk )]}, n ≥ 1, where X = (Xk )k∈Z is a d-dimensional Gaussian process and f : Rd → R is a measurable function. It is known that, under certain conditions on f and the covariance function r of X , Sn converges in distribution to a normal variable S . In the present paper we derive several explicit upper bounds for quantities of the type |E[h(Sn )] − E[h(S)]|, where h is a suciently smooth test function. Our methods are based on Malliavin calculus, on interpolation techniques and on the Stein's method for normal approximation. The bounds deduced in our paper depend only on Var[f (X1 )] and on simple innite series involving the components of r. In particular, our results generalize and rene some classic CLTs by Breuer-Major, Giraitis-Surgailis and Arcones, concerning the normal approximation of partial sums associated with Gaussian-subordinated time-series.

Introduction

Fix d ≥ 1 and consider a d-dimensional centered stationary Gaussian process X = (Xk )k∈Z , (1) (d) Xk = (Xk , . . . , Xk ), dened on a probability space (Ω, F, P). For any 1 ≤ i, l ≤ d and j ∈ Z, we denote by (i) (l) r(i,l) (j) = E[X1 X1+j ], (1.1) (i)

(l)

the covariance of X1 and X1+j . Let f : Rd → R be a measurable function and write n

1 X Sn = √ {f (Xk ) − E[f (Xk )]}, n k=1

(1.2)

n ≥ 1,

to indicate the sequence of normalized partial sums associated with the subordinated process k 7→ f (Xk ). One crucial problem in Gaussian analysis is the following: Problem P. Find conditions on f and on the covariance r in order to have that, as n → ∞, Sn converges in distribution to a Gaussian random variable.

Albeit easily stated, Problem P is indeed quite subtle. For instance, as observed e.g. in [8, p. 429], it is in general not possible to deduce a solution to Problem P by using standard central limit results for dependent random variables (for instance, by applying techniques based on mixing). More to the point, slight variations in the form of f and r may imply that either the normalization by the factor n1/2 is inappropriate, or the limiting distribution is not-Gaussian (or both): see Dobrushin and Major [16], Rosenblatt [33] and Taqqu [38, 39] for several classic results connected to this phenomenon, as well as Breton and Nourdin [7] for recent developments. It turns out that an elegant solution to Problem P can be deduced by using the notion of Hermite rank. Recall that the function f is said to have Hermite rank equal to q with respect to X , where q ≥ 1 is an integer, if (a) E[(f (X) − E[f (X)])pm (X)] = 0 for every polynomial pm (on Rd ) of degree m ≤ q − 1; and (b) there exists a polynomial pq of degree q such that E[(f (X) − E[f (X)])pq (X)] 6= 0 (see also Proposition 2.1 below). Then, one has the following well-known statement: Theorem 1.1 (Breuer-Major theorem for stationary vectors) Let E[f 2 (X1 )] < ∞,

and assume that the function f has Hermite rank equal to q ≥ 1. Suppose that X |r(i,l) (j)|q < ∞, ∀i, l ∈ {1, ..., d}.

In the case d = 1, Theorem 1.1 was rst proved by Breuer and Major in [8], whereas Theorem 4 in Arcones [2] proves the statement for a general d (both proofs in [2, 8] are based on the method of cumulants and diagram formulae  see e.g. [31, 36]). The reader is referred to Sun [35] for an early statement in the case of a Hermite rank equal to 2, and to Giraitis and Surgailis [18] for some continuous-time analogous of Theorem 1.1. Note that any central limit result involving Hermite ranks and series of covariance coecients is customarily called a `Breuer-Major Theorem', in honor of the seminal paper [8]. Theorem 1.1 and its variations have served as fundamental tools for Gaussian approximations in an impressive number of applications, of which we provide a representative (recent) sample: renormalization of fractional diusions [1], power variations of Gaussian and Gaussian-related continuous-time processes [3, 4, 15, 21], Gaussian uctuations of heat-type equations [5], estimation of Hurst parameters of fractional processes [9, 13, 14], unit root problems in econometrics [10], empirical processes of long-memory time-series [23], level functionals of stationary Gaussian elds [20], variations of multifractal random walks [22], and stochastic programming [40]. See also Surgailis [36] for a survey of some earlier uses of Breuer-Major criteria. Despite this variety of applications, until recently the only available techniques for proving results such as Theorem 1.1 were those based on combinatorial cumulants/diagrams computations. These techniques are quite eective and exible (see e.g. [24, 34] for further instances of their applicability), but suer of a fundamental drawback, namely they do not allow to deduce Berry-Esseen relations of the type E[h(Sn )] − E[h(S)] ≤ ϕ(n), n ≥ 1, (1.5) where h is a suitable test function, and ϕ(n) → 0 as n → ∞. An upper bound such as (1.5) quanties the error one makes when replacing Sn with S for a xed n. In [26, Section 4], the rst two authors of this paper proved that one can combine Malliavin calculus (see e.g. [30]) and Stein's method (see e.g. [12]) to obtain relations such as (1.5) (for some explicit ϕ(n)) in the case where: (i) d = 1, (ii) f = Hq is a Hermite polynomial of degree q ≥ 2 (and thus has Hermite rank equal to q ), (iii) X is obtained from the increments of a fractional Brownian motion of Hurst index H < 1 − (2q)−1 , and (iv) h is either an indicator of a Borel set or a Lipschitz function. Since under (iii) one has that |r(j)| ∼ j 2H−2 , these ndings allow to recover a very special case of Theorem 1.1 (see Example 2.6 below for more details on this point). The aim of the present work is to extend the techniques initiated in [26] in order to deduce several complete quantitative Breuer-Major theorems, that is, statements providing explicit upper bounds such as (1.5) for any choice of f and r satisfying the assumptions of Theorem 1.1. We stress by now that we will not require that the functions f enjoy any additional smoothness property, so that our results represent a genuine extension of the ndings by Breuer-Major and Arcones. As anticipated, our techniques are based on the use of Malliavin operators on a Gaussian space, that we combine both with Stein's method and with an interpolation technique

(already applied in [28, 32]) which is reminiscent of the `smart path method' in Spin Glasses  see e.g. Talagrand [37]. In particular, the use of Stein's method allows to deal with functions h that are either Lipschitz or indicators of the type h = 1(−∞,z] , whereas the use of interpolations requires test functions that are twice dierentiable and with bounded derivatives. Note that this implies that the convergence (1.4) takes indeed place in the stronger topologies of the Kolmogorov and Wasserstein distances. The rest of the paper is organized as follows. Section 2 contains the statements of our main results, some examples and applications. Section 3 presents some notions and results that are needed to prove our main Theorem 2.2. Section 4 is devoted to proofs.

Statement of the main results

We keep the assumptions and notation of the previous section. For the sake of notational simplicity, in the following we shall assume that E[f (X1 )] = 0. Also, we shall assume that (1) (d) X1 ∼ Nd (0, Id ), implying that Xk , . . . , Xk are independent N (0, 1) random variables for all k ∈ Z. Note that this last assumption is not restrictive: indeed, by reduction of variables and at the cost of possibly decreasing the value of d, we may always assume that Xk ∼ Nd (0, Σ) for an invertible matrix Σ ∈ Rd×d , and by a linear transformation we can further restrict ourselves to the case Xk ∼ Nd (0, Id ). Observe that, if f (x) has Hermite rank q with respect to X1 , then f (Lx) has the same Hermite rank q with respect to L−1 X1 , for every invertible matrix L  see also [2, p. 2249]. Now, let Λ denote the set of all vectors α = (α1 , . P . . , αd ) with αi ∈ NQ ∪ {0}. For any d multi-index α ∈ Λ, we introduce the notation |α| = i=1 αi and α! = di=1 αi !. When E[f 2 (X1 )] < ∞, the function f possesses the unique Hermite expansion d d h i Y X Y (i) −1 aα Hαi (xi ), aα = (α!) E f (X1 ) Hαi (X1 ) , (2.6) f (x) = i=1

j ≥ 1,

where δf (x) = xf (x) − f (x) (for instance: H1 (x) = x, H2 (x) = x2 − 1, and so on). 0

The following well-known statement provides a further characterization of Hermite ranks. Proposition 2.1 Let the notation and assumptions of this section prevail (in particular, E[f (X1 )] = 0 and X1 ∼ Nd (0, Id )). Then, the function f has Hermite rank q ≥ 1 if and only if aα = 0 for all α ∈ Λ with |α| < q and aα 6= 0 for some α ∈ Λ with |α| = q . In particular, if f has Hermite rank q , then its Hermite expansion has the form

where σ 2 is dened in Theorem 1.1. The next statement, which is the main result of the paper, asserts that the quantities dened above can be used to write explicit bounds of the type (1.5). Theorem 2.2 (Quantitative Breuer-Major Theorem) Let the notation and assump-

tions of this section prevail (in particular, E[f (X1 )] = 0 and X1 ∼ Nd (0, Id )), and assume that the conditions of Theorem 1.1 are satised. Then, the coecients appearing in formulae (2.8)(2.17) are all nite. Moreover, the following three bounds are in order. (1) For any function h ∈ C 2 (R) (that is, h is twice continuously dierentiable) with

bounded second derivative, and for every n > K ,   00 |E[h(Sn )] − E[h(S)]| ≤ kh k∞ A1,n + inf {A2,N + A3,n,N + A4,n,N + A5,n,N } . N ≥q

We will now demonstrate that Theorem 2.2 implies a stronger version of Theorem 1.1, namely that the convergence (1.4) takes place with respect to topologies that are stronger than the one of convergence in distribution. To prove this claim, we need to show in particular that, under the assumptions of Theorem 1.1, γn,m,e → 0 as n → ∞ for any choice of m ≥ q and 1 ≤ e ≤ m − 1. This is a consequence of the next Lemma 2.3. In what follows, given positive sequences bn , cn , n ≥ 1, we shall write bn . cn whenever bn /cn is bounded, and bn ∼ cn if bn . cn and cn . bn .

The rst term converges to 0 as δ goes to zero (because 1 ≤ e ≤ m − 1), and the second also converges to 0 for xed δ and n → ∞. This proves the claim. 2 Now recall that, if X, Y are two real-valued random variables, then the Kolmogorov distance between the law of X and the law of Y is given by

dKol (X, Y ) = sup |P(X ≤ z) − P(Y ≤ z)|.

(2.22)

If E|X|, E|Y | < ∞, one can also meaningfully dene the Wasserstein distance

dW (X, Y ) = sup |E[f (X)] − E[f (Y )]|,

(2.23)

f ∈Lip(1)

where Lip(1) indicates the collection of all Lipschitz functions with Lipschitz constant ≤ 1. Finally, if X, Y have nite second moments, for every constant C > 0 one can dene the distance

dC (X, Y ) = sup |E[f (X)] − E[f (Y )]|, 2 f ∈DC

(2.24)

where DC2 stands for the class of all twice continuously dierentiable functions having a second derivative bounded by C . Note that the topologies induced by dKol , dW and dC , on the probability measures on R, are strictly stronger than the topology of convergence in distribution (see e.g. [17, Ch. 11]). The next consequence of Theorem 2.2 provides the announced renement of Theorem 1.1.

Corollary 2.4 (Breuer-Major, strong version) Let the notation and assumptions of

this section prevail (in particular, E[f (X1 )] = 0 and X1 ∼ Nd (0, Id )), and assume that the conditions of Theorem 1.1 are satised. Then, the convergence (1.4) takes place with respect to the three distances dKol , dW and dC (for all C > 0), namely

lim dKol (Sn , S) = lim dW (Sn , S) = lim dC (Sn , S) = 0.

n→∞

Proof. Under the assumptions of Theorem 1.1, one has that A1,n → 0 as n → ∞ (because P q |j| θ < ∞, |j|≤n θ(j) n → 0 as n → ∞ by bounded convergence). On the other hand, because of (2.18) and since E[f 2 (X1 )] < ∞, one has that A2,N → 0 as N → ∞. Moreover, since γn,m,e → 0 for any m ≥ q and 1 ≤ e ≤ m − 1 (due to Lemma 2.3), one has that Aj,n,N → 0, j = 3, 4, 5, for any xed N as n → ∞. We deduce that inf N ≥q {A2,N + A3,n,N + A4,n,N + A5,n,N } → 0 as n → ∞. To conclude the proof, it remains to apply (2.19)(2.21). 2 Next, we present a simplied version of Theorem 2.2 for d = 1 and f = Hq , where Hq is the q th Hermite polynomial. Notice that in this case K = 0. Corollary 2.5 (Hermite subordination) Assume that d = 1, f = Hq and

Proof. From Theorem 3.1 in [26] and Theorem 3.2 in Section 3.3 we obtain the estimate

where ch = kh 2k∞ in (1), ch = khσk∞ in (2) and ch = kszσk∞ in (3). We readily deduce the assertion since E|σ 2 − hDF, −DL−1 F iH | ≤ 2(A1,n + A3,n ), which follows from the proof of Theorem 2.2. 2 We remark that the upper bound in (2.27) of Corollary 2.5 is stronger than the general upper bound obtained in (2.21) of Theorem 2.2. Next, we apply Corollary 2.5 to some particular classes of covariance functions r. Example 2.6 (Covariance functions with polynomial decay) Assume that d = 1

and f = Hq with q ≥ 2, and consider a covariance function r which is regular varying with parameter a < 0. That is, for all |k| ≥ 1, |r(k)| = |k|a l(|k|), where l is a slowly varying function. Recall that for any regular varying function r with parameter α < 0, we have the following discrete version of Karamata's theorem (see e.g. [6]): Pn k=1 |r(k)| → 1/(α + 1), α > −1 : na+1 l(n) P∞ k=n |r(k)| → −1/(α + 1), α < −1 : na+1 l(n) as n → ∞. Assume now that a < − 1q , which implies that the conditions of Theorem 2.2 are satised, and ae 6= −1 for any e = 1, . . . , q − 1. By the afore-mentioned convergence results we immediately deduce the following estimates (1 ≤ e ≤ q − 1)

1 E[Bt Bs ] = (|t|2H + |s|2H − |t + s|2H ) 2 It is well-known that the correlation function r of the fractional Brownian noise has the following form: |r(k)| = |k|2H−2 l(|k|), k ≥ 1, with l(|k|) → 2H|2H − 1| as |k| → ∞ when H 6= 21 , and l(|k|) = 0 for |k| ≥ 1 when H = 21 .

Let us remark that these upper bounds coincide with those derived in Theorem 4.1 in [26]. We nally remark that the rate n−1/2 for a = 2H − 2 ∈ (−2, −1] has been proved to be optimal in [27]. For the other two cases the optimality question is still an open problem.

Toolbox Malliavin calculus on a Gaussian space

We shall now provide a short introduction to the tools of Malliavin calculus that are needed in the proof of our main Theorem 2.2. The reader is referred to [30] for any unexplained denition or result. Let H be a real separable Hilbert space. We denote by

W = {W (h) : h ∈ H} an isonormal Gaussian process over H, that is, W is a centered Gaussian family indexed by the elements of H and such that, for every g1 , g2 ∈ H,   E W (g1 )W (g2 ) = hg1 , g2 iH . (3.28) In what follows, we shall use the notation L2 (W ) = L2 (Ω, σ(W ), P). For every q ≥ 1, q we write H⊗q to indicate the q th tensor power of H; the √ symbol H indicates the q th symmetric tensor power of H, equipped with the norm q!k · kH⊗q . We denote by Iq the isometry between H q and the q th Wiener chaos of X . It is well-known (see again [30, Ch. 1]) that any random variable F belonging to L2 (W ) admits the chaotic expansion:

F =

Iq (fq ),

(3.29)

q=0

where I0 (f0 ) := E[F ], the series converges in L2 and the kernels fq ∈ H q , q ≥ 1, are uniquely determined by F . In the particular case where H = L2 (A, A , µ), with (A, A ) a measurable space and µ a σ -nite and non-atomic measure, one has that H q = L2s (Aq , A ⊗q , µ⊗q ) is the space of symmetric and square integrable functions on Aq . Moreover, for every f ∈ H q , Iq (f ) coincides with the multiple Wiener-Itô integral (of order q ) of f with respect to W (see [30, Ch. 1]). It is well-known that a random variable of the type Iq (f ), f ∈ H q , has nite moments of all orders (see [19, Ch. VI]). For every q ≥ 0, we write Jq to indicate the orthogonal projection operator on the q th Wiener chaos associated with W , so that, if F ∈ L2 (W ) is as in (3.29), then Jq F = Iq (fq ) for every q ≥ 0. Let {ek , k ≥ 1} be a complete orthonormal system in H. Given f ∈ H p and g ∈ H q , for every r = 0, . . . , p∧q , the rth contraction of f and g is the element of H⊗(p+q−2r) dened as ∞ X f ⊗r g = hf, ei1 ⊗ . . . ⊗ eir iH⊗r ⊗ hg, ei1 ⊗ . . . ⊗ eir iH⊗r .

In the particular case where H = L2 (A, A , µ) (with µ non-atomic), one has that Z f ⊗r g = f (t1 , . . . , tp−r , s1 , . . . , sr ) g(tp−r+1 , . . . , tp+q−2r , s1 , . . . , sr )dµ(s1 ) . . . dµ(sr ). Ar

where n ≥ 1, g : Rn → R is a smooth function with compact support and φi ∈ H. The Malliavin derivative of F with respect to W is the element of L2 (Ω, H) dened as n X  ∂g DF = W (φ1 ), . . . , W (φn ) φi . ∂xi i=1

Also, DW (φ) = φ for every φ ∈ H. As usual, D1,2 denotes the closure of S with respect to the norm k · k1,2 , dened by the relation     kF k21,2 = E F 2 + E kDF k2H . Note that, if F is equal to a nite sum of multiple Wiener-Itô integrals, then F ∈ D1,2 . The Malliavin derivative D veries the following chain rule : if ϕ : Rn → R is in Cb1 (that is, the collection of continuously dierentiable functions with bounded partial derivatives) and if {Fi }i=1,...,n is a vector of elements of D1,2 , then ϕ(F1 , . . . , Fn ) ∈ D1,2 and

Dϕ(F1 , . . . , Fn ) =

We denote by δ the adjoint of the operator D, also called the divergence operator. A random element u ∈ L2 (Ω, H) belongs to the domain of δ , noted Domδ , if and only if it veries |EhDF, uiH | ≤ cu kF kL2 for any F ∈ S , where cu is a constant depending only on u. If u ∈ Domδ , then the random variable δ(u) is dened by the duality relationship (sometimes called `integration by parts formula'):

E[F δ(u)] = EhDF, uiH ,

which holds for every F ∈ D1,2 . The operator L, acting on square integrable randomP variables of the type (3.29), is dened through the projection operators {Jq }q≥0 as L = ∞ q=0 −qJq , and is called the innitesimal generator of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup. It veries the following crucial property: a random variable F is an element of DomL (= D2,2 ) if, and only if, F ∈ DomδD (i.e. F ∈ D1,2 and DF ∈ Domδ ), and in this case: δDF = −LF. Note that a random variable F as in (3.29) is in D1,2 if and only if ∞ X (q + 1)!kfq k2H⊗q < ∞, q=1

Estimates via interpolations and Stein's method

The forthcoming Theorem 3.2 contains two bounds on normal approximations, that are expressed in terms of Malliavin operators. As anticipated, the proof of Point (1) uses an interpolation technique already applied in [28, 32], which is close to the `smart path method' of Spin Glasses [37]. Point (2) uses estimates from [26]. Theorem 3.2 Let F be a centered element of D1,2 and let Z ∼ N (0, σ 2 ), σ > 0. (1) Suppose that h : R → R is twice continuously dierentiable and has a bounded second

derivative. Then,

00 E[h(F )] − E[h(Z)] ≤ kh k∞ E|σ 2 − hDF, −DL−1 F iH |. 2

Proof. (1) Without loss of generality, we may assume that F and Z are independent and dened on the space. Fix h as in the statement, and dene the function √ √ same probability Ψ(t) = E[h( 1 − tF + tZ)], t ∈ [0, 1]. Standard results imply that Ψ is dierentiable for every t ∈ (0, 1), and that

√ √ √ √ 1 1 E[h0 ( 1 − tF + tZ)F ]. Ψ0 (t) = √ E[h0 ( 1 − tF + tZ)Z] − √ 2 1−t 2 t By using independence and integration by parts, we obtain immediately that

√ √ √ √ 1 σ2 √ E[h0 ( 1 − tF + tZ)Z] = E[h00 ( 1 − tF + tZ)]. 2 2 t On the other hand, the relation F = LL−1 F = −δDL−1 F and (3.32) imply that

hσ (x) = h(σx), Fσ = σ −1 F , and Zσ = σ −1 Z ∼ N (0, 1). Let s be the solution of the Stein's equation associated with hσ , i.e. s solves the dierential equation hσ (x) − E[hσ (Zσ )] = s0 (x) − xs(x),

x ∈ R.

Rx 1 It is well-known that such a solution is given by s(x) = ϕ(x) (h (t) − Φ(t))ϕ(t)dt, where −∞ σ ϕ and Φ are the density and the distribution function of N (0, 1), respectively, and ks0 k∞ ≤ kh0σ k∞ . Since Fσ is a centered element of D1,2 it holds that Fσ = LL−1 Fσ = −δDL−1 Fσ . By integration by parts formula (3.32) we deduce that E[h(F )] − E[h(Z)] = E[hσ (Fσ )] − E[hσ (Zσ )] = E[s0 (Fσ ) − Fσ s(Fσ )] = E[s0 (Fσ )(1 − hDFσ , −DL−1 Fσ iH )] ≤ ks0 k∞ E|1 − hDFσ , −DL−1 Fσ iH | ≤ kh0σ k∞ E|1 − hDFσ , −DL−1 Fσ iH |.

Proof of Theorem 2.2 Preparation

First, let us remark that the process X = (Xk )k∈Z can always be regarded as a subset of an isonormal Gaussian process {W (u) : u ∈ H}, where H is a separable Hilbert space with scalar product h·, ·iH . More precisely, we shall assume (without loss of generality) that, for every k ∈ Z and every 1 ≤ l ≤ d, there exists uk,l ∈ H such that (l)

Xk = W (uk,l ),

and consequently

huk,l , uk0 ,l0 iH = r(l,l ) (k − k 0 ),

for every k, k 0 ∈ Z and every 1 ≤ l, l0 ≤ d. Observe also that H can be taken of the form H = L2 (A, A , µ), where µ is σ -nite and non-atomic. Using the Hermite expansion (2.6) of the function f we obtain the Wiener chaos representation ∞ X n n ∈ H m , Sn = Im (gm ), gm m=q n where the kernels gm have the form n

The proofs of Point 1 and Point 2 in Theorem 2.2 are similar, and are detailed in the subsequent two sections. 4.2

Proof of Theorem 2.2-(1)

P First of all, we remark that θ(j) → 0 as |j| → ∞, because j∈Z θ(j)q < ∞. This implies that K < ∞, where the constant K is dened Moreover, the asymptotic variance P∞ in (2.9). 2 2 n 2 σ is nite.
