Sufficient and insufficient conditions for the stochastic convergence of Ces\`{a}ro means
arxiv(2020)
摘要
We study the stochastic convergence of the Ces\`{a}ro mean of a sequence of random variables. These arise naturally in statistical problems that have a sequential component, where the sequence of random variables is typically derived from a sequence of estimators computed on data. We show that establishing a rate of convergence in probability for a sequence is not sufficient in general to establish a rate in probability for its Ces\`{a}ro mean. We also present several sets of conditions on the sequence of random variables that are sufficient to guarantee a rate of convergence for its Ces\`{a}ro mean. We identify common settings in which these sets of conditions hold.
