\chapter{The characteristic function} | ||

\begin{definition}\label{def:charFun} | ||
Let $\mu$ be a measure on an inner product space. The characteristic function of $\mu$, denoted by $\hat{\mu}$, is the function $E \to \mathbb{C}$ defined by | ||
\begin{align*} | ||
\hat{\mu}(t) = \int_x e^{i \langle t, x \rangle} d\mu(x) \: . | ||
\end{align*} | ||
The characteristic function of a random variable $X$ is defined as the characteristic function of $\mathcal L(X)$. | ||
\end{definition} | ||

\begin{lemma}\label{lem:charFun_smul} | ||
\uses{def:charFun} | ||
For $a \in \mathbb{R}$, the characteristic function of $a X$ is $t \mapsto \phi_X(at)$. | ||
\end{lemma} | ||
|
||
\begin{lemma}\label{lem:charFun_add_of_indep} | ||
\uses{def:charFun} | ||
If two random variables $X, Y : \Omega \to S$ are independent, then $X+Y$ has characteristic function $\phi_{X+Y} = \phi_X \phi_Y$. | ||

\begin{theorem}[Central limit theorem]\label{clt} | ||
Let $\xi_1, \xi_2, \ldots$ be i.i.d. random variables with mean 0 and variance 1, and let $\zeta$ be a random variable with law $\mathcal N(0,1)$. Then | ||
Let $X_1, X_2, \ldots$ be i.i.d. random variables with mean 0 and variance 1, and let $Z$ be a random variable with law $\mathcal N(0,1)$. Then | ||

\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\sum_{k=1}^n \xi_k \xrightarrow{d} \zeta \: . | ||
\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\sum_{k=1}^n X_k \xrightarrow{d} Z \: . | ||

Let $S_n = \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\sum_{k=1}^n X_k$. Let $\phi$ be the characteristic function of $X_k$. By Lemma TODO, the characteristic function of $S_n$ is $\phi_n(t) = (\phi(n^{-1/2}t))^n$. | ||
