The Central Limit Theorem for Independent Identically Distributed Square-Integrable Random Variables

For an iid sequence of square-integrable random variables with mean mu and positive variance sigma2sigma^2, the normalized partial sums (SnS_n - n mu)/(sigma sqrt n) converge in distribution to a standard normal random variable.

Statement

In the setting of Gaussian Random Vectors: Standing Notation and Convergence of Probability Measures and Random Elements: Standing Notation, let (Xk)k∈N(X_{k})_{k\in\mathbb{N}} be an independent and identically distributed sequence of random variables in L2(P)\mathcal{L}^{2}(P) with Var⁡X1>0\operatorname{Var}X_{1}>0, let μ=EX1\mu=\mathbb{E}X_{1} and σ=Var⁡X1\sigma=\sqrt{\operatorname{Var}X_{1}} (The k-th Root and the Square Root of a Nonnegative Real Number (ii)), and for n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N} let

Tn=1σn(∑k=1nXk−nμ).T_{n}=\frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{n}}\Bigl(\sum_{k=1}^{n}X_{k}-n\mu\Bigr).

Central limit theorem. Let ZZ be a standard normal random variable on a probability space (Ω′,F′,P′)(\Omega',\mathcal{F}',P'). Then

Tn→dZ.T_{n}\xrightarrow{d}Z.
