A general Darling-Erdös theorem in Euclidean space

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We provide an improved version of the Darling-Erdös theorem for sums of i.i.d. random variables with mean zero and finite variance. We extend this result to multidimensional random vectors. Our proof is based on a new strong invariance principle in this setting which has other applications as well such as an integral test refinement of the multidimensional Hartman-Wintner LIL. We also identify a borderline situation where one has weak convergence to a shifted version of the standard limiting distribution in the classic Darling-Erdös theorem.
