Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The aim of this paper is to derive consequences of a result of Götze and Zaitsev (2008). We show that the i.i.d. case of this result implies a multidimensional version of some results of Sakhanenko (1985). We establish bounds for the rate of strong Gaussian approximation of sums of i.i.d. R d-valued random vectors ξ j having finite moments E IIξ j IIγ, γ>2. Bibliography: 13 titles.
