2 258 Jaa Klicarová ad Dalibor Volý Defiitio 2 We say that for a fuctio f there exists a wea diagoal approximatio if there is a sequece N, = o of itegers such that i for f = i= P i f we have S f f 0, σ ii for f = m + g Ug with m = g = i= P 0 U i f we have g = oσ i P i U j f i= i j=0 P i U j f f for the array U i m,, of martigale differeces a CLT holds, we get it for S f/σ as well cf Volý, 2006; this geeralises Gordi s result to processes with oliear growth of variaces of partial sums Haa 973 has oticed that if the series of P i f = P 0 U i f is summable the the series of m = i Z P 0U i f coverges ad gives a martigale approximatio We, moreover, get that for ay ǫ > 0 there is a such that for m = i= P 0U i f, limsup S f m 2 / ǫ; this holds if we replace m by f = i= P if as well Defiitio 3 We say that for a fuctio f there exists a strog diagoal approximatio if there is a iteger sequece of d N, d = o, such that for all iteger sequeces N which satisfy d for all ad = o: i for f = i= P i f we have S f f 0, σ ii for f = m + g Ug with m = g = i= P 0 U i f we have g = oσ i P i U j f i= i j=0 P i U j f The Haa s coditio thus implies the strog diagoal approximatio The Haa s coditio implies the wea ivariace priciple; i full geerality the result was proved i Dedecer et al 2007, the martigale approximatio for o adapted processes ca be foud i Volý 993 Heyde has show that if the series m = i Z P 0U i f coverges i L 2 ad m 2 limif S f 2 the a martigale approximatio exists cf Hall ad Heyde, 980 Volý 993 has show that the covergece i L 2 is ot sufficiet for the martigale approximatio ad that a ucoditioal covergece is a sufficiet coditio

4 260 Jaa Klicarová ad Dalibor Volý The Propositio shows that i the Zhao-Woodroofe s coditio, the limit of averages caot be replaced by a limit of f + = limsup j j S j f f 3 Proofs 3 Proof of Theorem 2 Let us prove the first part of the theorem At first we prove that the wea diagoal approximatio implies the Wu-Woodroofe approximatio We have Q 0 S f = 0 P i U j f i= i= + 0 P i U j f + i= + j=i+ + = i= + P i U j f P i U j f + i ad + 3 S f f 2 Ug = g Therefore, uder the assumptios of the wea diagoal approximatio, The proof for R S f is similar Q 0 S f = oσ Now, we show that the Wu-Woodroofe approximatio implies the wea diagoal approximatio We ca suppose that f is adapted to the filtratio ad regular, ie f = P if; the o adapted case ca be treated i the same maer cf Volý, 2006 ad the o regular part of f does ot affect the limit behaviour We have σ 2 = S f 2 2 = h where h is a slowly varyig fuctio i the sese of Karamata cf Kalleberg, 997 ad ES f F 0 2 = oσ Recall that the Wu-Woodroofe coditio implies that there is a martigale differece array U i m such that S f m 2 = oσ ; we the have m 2 = σ / + oσ /

5 Diagoal approximatios by martigales 26 Note that S f m 2 2 = ES f F U j m P j = ES f F i=j j m P 0 U i f 2 2 U i f 2 2 = by the assumptios, f is adapted hece P j U i f = 0 for j > i We thus have that for ay ǫ > 0 ad big eough, for all but ǫ j {0,,}, m P 0 j Ui f 2 2 < ǫh Let ǫ be oe of such j We the have P 0 U i f P 0 U i f 2 2 < 2ǫh hece for m = P 0 U i f, i=j S f m 2 2 = oσ2 Deote f = P i f To show that S f f 2 2 = oσ 2 it suffices to prove ES f F 0 2 = oσ By the assumptios U j m P j i=j U i f 2 = oσ hece recall that P j U j m = U j m so that j= + j=0 j m P 0 U i f 2 = oσ j m P 0 U i f 2 = oσ Because Uj m 2 2 σ2 = oσ2, we thus get j=0 j P 0 U i f 2 = oσ hece f = m + g Ug where g 2 = oσ ad S f f 2 = oσ So, the f has a wea diagoal approximatio t remais to prove the secod part of the theorem This part follows immediately from the defiitios of the strog diagoal approximatio ad the wea diagoal approximatio

6 262 Jaa Klicarová ad Dalibor Volý 32 Proof of Theorem Costructio of the process Let e H 0 H ad e = U i e i is thus a martigale differece sequece For i, j N N deotes the set of all positive itegers we deote K j = exp j 2 j N j = 2 K i +, b j = j 2 ad put K 0, N 0 = 0, b 0 = We defie fuctios f i, f i for i N: f i := K i = f i := f i T Ni Ki K i e T + =0 + e T, ad put where f 0 = b 0 e f = + i= b i fi + f 0, Mai idea of the proof We will prove that Q0Sf S f 0 Remar that this is a ecessary ad sufficiet coditio for the Wu-Woodroofe approximatio cf Wu ad Woodroofe, 2004 The we will deduce that there is a martigale approximatio the secod part of the proof we will show that for ay sequece of d = o there exists a sequece such that d, = o ad for f = i= P i f, S f f 0 the proof, we shall eed both upper ad lower estimatios of the term S f, a upper estimatio of Q 0 S f ad a lower estimatio of the term S f f We have S f S f Q 0 S f, S f S f Q 0 S f + Q 0 S f, hece for the estimatio of the term S f it suffices to estimate the terms Q 0 S f ad S f Q 0 S f

8 264 Jaa Klicarová ad Dalibor Volý The case of > N i+ f we suppose N i+, the the term y,j is as follows: j : j > N i or j N i+ + such case cf 33 y,j = 0 2 j : N i K i + j N i K i y,j = b i =j +N i+k i 3 j : N i 2K i + 2 j N i K i y,j = b i K i =+2 N i K i j = 4 j : N i + j N i 2K i + t is easily see from the costructio of the fuctio f i that Ki P j S b i fi = b i K i + = 0, =N i+k i+j = so y,j = 0 5 j : N i K i + 2 j N i Alie as i 3 K i y,j = b i 6 j : N i 2K i + 2 j N i K i + t is similar case to 2, we have K i y,j = b i = N i K i j+2 The case of N i Remar that P j S f = 0 for j > sice f is adapted So, if have the case of < N i, the we eed to express the projectio P j S b i fi for egative j oly, especially for j [ N, N 2K ] Now, let us have N i Sice S f i H Ni+ H Ni 2K i+, we are iterested oly i projectios P j for egative j The expressio of the term y,j is as follows 2 j : j > N i or j N i+ + such case cf 33 y,j = 0 22 j : N i + j N i K i y,j = b i =j +N i+k i 23 j : N i K i + j N i y,j = b i K i+j+n i =j +N i+k i 24 j : + 2 Ni K i + j N i K i y,j = b i K i+j+n i = j+ N i K i+
