Abstract

Zolotarev show in [1, 4] the importance of ideal probability distance in order to obtain a rate of convergence in limit theorems. This paper considers the question of the rate of convergence to laws, where in the generalized CLT, that is, for the partial sums of independent identically distributed random variables which are not assumed to be square integrable. This note can be seen as a slight contribution based on the Zolotarev paper in [1] which aims to clarify the finiteness conditions of the Zolotarev distance used to prove bounds.
