Abstract

We derive a lower bound of L p norms, 1 ⩽ p ⩽ ∞, in the central limit theorem for strongly mixing random variables X 1,..., X n with \(\mathbb{E}X_i \; = \;0\) under the boundedness condition ℙ{|X i | ⩽ M} = 1 with a nonrandom constantM > 0 and condition ∑ r⩾1 r 2α(r) < ∞, where α(r) are the Rosenblatt strong mixing coefficients.
