A CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM FOR GENERAL WEIGHTED SUM OF LNQD RANDOM VARIABLES AND ITS APPLICATION

In this paper we derive the central limit theorem for ${\sum}_{i=1}^n\;a_{ni}\xi_i$, where ${a_{ni},\;1\;{\leq}\;i\;{\leq}\;n}$ is a triangular array of nonnegative numbers such that $sup_n{\sum}_{i=1}^n\;a_{ni}^2\;<\;{\infty},\;max_{1{\leq}i{\leq}n}a_{ni}{\rightarrow}0\;as\;n\;{\rightarrow}\;{\infty}\;and\;\xi'_i\;s$ are a linearly negative quadrant dependent sequence. We also apply this result to consider a central limit theorem for a partial sum of a generalized linear process $X_n\;=\;\sum_{j=-\infty}^\infty\;a_k+_j{\xi}_j$.
