A comprehensive introduction to the central limit theory-from foundations to current research
This volume provides an introduction to the central limit theory of random vectors, which lies at the heart of probability and statistics. The authors develop the central limit theory in detail, starting with the basic constructions of modern probability theory, then developing the fundamental tools of infinitely divisible distributions and regular variation. They provide a number of extensions and applications to probability and statistics, and take the reader through the fundamentals to the current level of research.
In synthesizing results from nearly 200 research papers and ... Read more

Reviews for Limit Distributions for Sums of Independent Random Vectors
"Introduces the central limit theory of random vectors, an essential theory in probability and statistics, focusing on multivariate models." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 25, No. 3, September 2001) "...well written with many insightful ideas...many interesting features...the most noteworthy being its coverage of limits. There are not many books at the same level." (Mathematical Reviews, 2002i) "....a carefully written ... Read more
