Abstract

The martingale central limit theorem provides convergence of suitably centered and scaled sums of martingale difference sequences having finite second moments that encompass a wide range of applications that extend well beyond the classical formulations for i.i.d. summands. The approach is based upon infinitesimal conditions for a stochastic process to be a Gaussian process of interest in their own right.
