Weak convergence for the row sums of a triangular array of empirical processes indexed by a manageable triangular array of functions

TLDR
In this article, the authors studied the weak convergence for the row sums of a general triangular array of empirical processes indexed by a manageable class of functions converging to an arbitrary limit.
Abstract
We study the weak convergence for the row sums of a general triangular array of empirical processes indexed by a manageable class of functions converging to an arbitrary limit. As particular cases, we consider random series processes and normalized sums of i.i.d. random processes with Gaussian and stable limits. An application to linear regression is presented. In this application, the limit of the row sum of a triangular array of empirical process is the mixture of a Gaussian process with a random series process.

Convergence of the Optimal M-Estimator over a Parametric Family of M-Estimators

TL;DR: In this paper, a method to select an optimal estimator over a family of M-estimators of a parameter was proposed. But it is not shown that this estimator is asymptotically normal under regularity conditions.

Convergence of stochastic processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a functional on Stochastic Processes as random functions and propose a uniform convergence of empirical measures in Euclidean spaces, based on the notion of convergence in distribution.
