Asymptotic development for the CLT in total variation distance. (English) Zbl 1346.60016
Authors’ abstract: The aim of this paper is to study the asymptotic expansion in the total variation distance in the central limit theorem when the law of the basic random variable is locally lower-bounded by the Lebesgue measure (or equivalently, has an absolutely continuous component): we develop the error in powers of $$n^{-1/2}$$ and give an explicit formula for the approximating measure.
