On the convergence of Markov chains to diffusion processes. (Russian) Zbl 0579.60075

Teor. Veroyatn. Mat. Stat. 31, 51-64 (1984).
Conditions are obtained for convergence (uniform on compact sets) of the transition densities of certain sequences of Markov chains to a limit, given by the solution to a diffusion equation. Both Gaussian and other distributions are discussed; bounded and Lipschitz hypotheses are assumed.
