4 1 Introduction Most of statistical inferences are often associated with limit theorems for random variables or stochastic processes. Weak convergence of stochastic processes is a very important and foundational theory in probability and statistics. Billingsley (1999) gave a systematic classical theory of weak convergence for stochastic processes.

10 For identifying the limiting process, there are serval methods.
11 For identifying the limiting process, there are serval methods. Usually, when the limiting process is Guassian process, one can identify the limiting process by proving the convergence of the finite dimensional distributions.

Usually, when the limiting process is Guassian process, one can identify the limiting process by proving the convergence of the finite dimensional distributions. When the finite dimensional distributions of limiting processes are difficult to compute, this method can not be easily used. An alternative method is martingale convergence method. This method is based on the Martingale Problem of Semimartingales. When the limiting processes are semimartingales, martingale convergence method is effective.
14 The idea of martingale convergence method originate in the work of Stroock and Varadhan (Stroock and Varadhan (1969)). In Jacod and Shiryaev (2003), they gave a whole system of this method. When limiting process is a jump-process, their results are very powerful.

Recently, martingale convergence method is usually used in the study of convergence of processes, such as discretized processes and statistics for high frequency data. (c.f. Jacod (2008), Aït-Sahalia and Jacod (2009), Fan and Fan (2011)).

17 To our knowledge, Ibragimov and Phillips (2008) firstly introduced the martingale convergence method to the study of time series. They studied the weak convergence of various general functionals of partial sums of linear processes. The limiting process is a stochastic integral. Their result was used in the study for unit root theory.

Their result was used in the study for unit root theory. When the limiting processes are jump-processes, their methods may be useless, since they need that the residual in martingale decomposition is neglected, which may not be satisfied in the jump case.
19 Now, we extend Ibragimov and Phillips s results to two directions. One is about causal processes.
20 Now, we extend Ibragimov and Phillips s results to two directions. One is about causal processes. Causal process {X n,n 1} is defined by X n = g(,ε n 1,ε n ), where {ε n ;n Z} is a sequence of i.i.d. r.v. s with mean zero and g is a measurable function.

Causal process {X n,n 1} is defined by X n = g(,ε n 1,ε n ), where {ε n ;n Z} is a sequence of i.i.d. r.v. s with mean zero and g is a measurable function. It contains many important stochastic models, such as linear process, ARCH model, threshold AR (TAR) model and so on.
22 Wiener (1958) conjectured that for every stationary ergodic process {X n,n 1}, there exists a function g and i.i.d. ε n,n 1 such that X n = D g(,ε n 1,ε n ).
23 Wiener (1958) conjectured that for every stationary ergodic process {X n,n 1}, there exists a function g and i.i.d. ε n,n 1 such that X n = D g(,ε n 1,ε n ). We study weak convergence of functional of causal processes. The limiting process is the stochastic integral driven by the Brownian motion. The result extends the results in Ibregimov and Phillips (2008) to causal process, and our assumptions are more wild than theirs.

We study weak convergence of functional of causal processes. The limiting process is the stochastic integral driven by the Brownian motion. The result extends the results in Ibregimov and Phillips (2008) to causal process, and our assumptions are more wild than theirs. We extend Ibregimov and Phillips s work to another direction: {X n } is a sequence of heavy-tailed random variables.
25 We discuss an important class of heavy-tailed random variables. A random variable X, the so-called regularly varying random variables with index α (0,2) if there exists a positive parameter α such that P(X > cx) lim x P(X > x) = c α, c > 0. We study weak convergence of functionals of the i.i.d. regularly varying random variables. The limiting process is the stochastic integral driven by α stable Lévy process.
26 Usually, people obtain the weak convergence of heavy-tailed random variables by point process method. In this case, the summation functional should be a continuous functional respect to the Skorohod topology, and the limiting process should have a compound Poisson representation.
27 Usually, people obtain the weak convergence of heavy-tailed random variables by point process method. In this case, the summation functional should be a continuous functional respect to the Skorohod topology, and the limiting process should have a compound Poisson representation. However, if we want to extend Ibragimov and Phillips s results to the heavy-tailed random variables, the point process method can not be used easily, since the limiting process has jumps.
28 Because the limiting process has jumps, we have to modify the proof procedure in Ibragimov and Phillips (2008). Our method is not only effective for the jump case but also simpler than that of Ibragimov and Phillips (2008)(only for the continuous case).
29 We use the martingale approximation procedure, strong approximation of martingale and the martingale convergence method to prove our theorems.
30 We use the martingale approximation procedure, strong approximation of martingale and the martingale convergence method to prove our theorems. Martingale approximation procedure. Let {X n } be a sequence of random variables, S n = n k=1 X k. We can structure a martingale M n, If the error S n M n is small enough in some sense, we can consider M n instead of S n.

Strong approximation of martingale. Let M n, n = 1,2,, be a sequence of martingales. Under some conditions, we can find a Brownian motion (or Gaussian process) B such that M n B 0 a.s. with some rate.
32 Martingale convergence method. The following theorem makes out that the limiting process for weak convergence of martingale sequence is still a martingale.
33 Martingale convergence method. The following theorem makes out that the limiting process for weak convergence of martingale sequence is still a martingale. Theorem A (Jacod and Shiryaev (2003)) Let Y n be a càdlàg process and M n be a martingale on a same filtered probability space (Ω, F, F = (F t ) t 1, P). Let M be a càdlàg process defined on the canonical space (D([0, 1]), D([0, 1]), D). Assume that (i) (M n ) is uniformly integrable; (ii) Y n Y for some Y with law P = L (Y ); (iii) M n t M t (Y n ) P 0, 0 t 1 Then the process M (Y ) is a martingale under P.
34 Let M n, n = 1,2,, be a sequence of martingales. The predictable characteristic of M n is a triplet (B n,c n,ν n ). If there exists limit (B,C,ν), then one can identify the limiting process M by (B, C, ν).
35 2 Convergence to Stochastic Integral Driven by Brownian Motion Recall that Z L p (p > 0) if Z p = [E( Z p )] 1/p < and write Z = Z 2. To study the asymptotic property of the sums of causal process X n = g(,ε n 1,ε n ), martingale approximation is an effective method. We list the notations used in the following part:
36 F k = σ(,ε k 1,ε k ). Projections P k Z = E(Z F k ) E(Z F k 1 ), Z L 1. D k = i=k P kx i, M k = k i=1 D i. M k is a martingale, we will use M k to approximate sum S k. θ n,p = P 0 X n p, Λ n,p = n i=0 θ i,p, Θ m,p = i=m θ i,p. B: standard Brownian motion.
37 Assumption 1. X 0 L q, q 4, and Θ n,q = O(n 1/4 (log n) 1 ). Assumption 2. where σ = D k. Assumption 3. k=0 i=1 E(Dk 2 F 0) σ 2 2 <, k=1 E(X k X k+i F 0 ) E(X k X k+i F 1 ) 4 <, and E(X k X k+i F 0 ) 3 <. k=0 i=1
38 Remark 1 If we consider linear process to replace the causal process, Assumptions 1 3 can easily be implied by the conditions in Ibragimov and Phillips (2008).
39 Theorem 1 Let f : R R be a twice continuously differentiable function satisfying f (x) K(1 + x α ) for some positive constants K and α and all x R. Suppose that X t is a causal process satisfying Assumptions 1 3. Then [n ] 1 f( 1 t 1 X i )X t λ n n t=2 i=1 where λ = j=1 EX 0X j. 0 f (B(v))dv + σ 0 f(b(v))db(v), (2.1)
40 Remark 2 When f(x) = 1, Theorem 1 is the classical invariance principle, when f(x) = x, (2.1) is important in the unit root theory.
41 Remark 2 When f(x) = 1, Theorem 1 is the classical invariance principle, when f(x) = x, (2.1) is important in the unit root theory. Let Y n = αy n 1 + X n, where {X n } n 0 is a causal process, and want to estimate α from {Y t }.
42 Let ˆα = n t=1 Y t 1Y t n t=1 Y 2 t 1 denote the ordinary least squares estimator of α. Let t α be the regression t statistic: t α = ( n t=1 Y t 1 2 2(ˆα )1 1) 1. n n t=1 (Y t ˆαY t 1 ) Using Theorem 1 with f(x) = x, we get the asymptotic distribution of n(ˆα 1) and t α as follows.
43 Theorem 2 Under Assumptions 1-3, we have n(ˆα 1) d λ + σ2 1 0 B(v)dB(v) σ 2 1, (2.1) 0 B2 (v)dv d λ + σ 2 1 t α 0 B(v)dB(v) (. (2.2) 1 0 B2 (v)dv) 1 2
44 Theorem 2 Under Assumptions 1-3, we have n(ˆα 1) d λ + σ2 1 0 B(v)dB(v) σ 2 1, (2.1) 0 B2 (v)dv d λ + σ 2 1 t α 0 B(v)dB(v) (. (2.2) 1 0 B2 (v)dv) 1 2 We can construct the confidence interval of α for the unit root testing.
45 3 Convergence to Stochastic Integral Driven by Lévy α Stable Process Let E = [, ]\{0} and M p (E) be the set of Radon measures on E with values in Z +, the set of positive integers.
46 3 Convergence to Stochastic Integral Driven by Lévy α Stable Process Let E = [, ]\{0} and M p (E) be the set of Radon measures on E with values in Z +, the set of positive integers. For µ n,µ M p (E), we say that µ n vaguely converge to the measure µ, if µ n (f) µ(f) for any f C + K, where C+ K is the class of continuous functions v with compact support, denoted by µ n µ.
47 Theorem 3 Let f : R R be a continuous differentiable function such that f(x) f(y) K x y a (3.1) for some positive constants K, a and all x,y R. Suppose that {X n } n 1 is a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. Set X n,j = X j b n E(h( X j b n )) (3.2) for some b n, where h(x) is a continuous function satisfying h(x) = x in a neighbourhood of 0 and h(x) x 1 x 1.
48 Define ρ by ρ((x,+ ]) = px α, ρ([, x)) = qx α (3.3) for x > 0, where α (0,1), 0 < p < 1 and p + q = 1. Then [n ] i=2 X n,j )X n,i i 1 f( j=1 0 f(z α (s ))dz α (s), (3.4) in D[0,1], where Z α (s) is an α stable Lévy process with Lévy measure ρ iff np[ X 1 b n ] v ρ( ) (3.5) in M p (E).
49 Remark 3 Condition (3.5) implies that X i is regularly varying random variable. b n is the the normalization factor, it is determined by the quantile of X i.
50 Remark 4 To discuss the weak convergence of heavy-tailed random variables, X 1 is usually assumed to be symmetric, but we don t have such assumption. In order to use the martingale convergence method, we study the asymptotic properties of instead of X j b n. X n,j = X j b n E(h( X j b n ))
51 Remark 5 The limiting process in Theorem 2 is stochastic integral driven by α stable Lévy process. The main difference between this result and Theorem 1 is the continuity of the limiting process. For the heavy-tailed case, the limiting process is discontinuous. It will be more complex than the continuous case, we should modify the martingale convergence method.
52 Remark 6 When X n is a stationary sequence instead of an i.i.d. sequence, we have the following theorem.
53 Theorem 4 Let f : R R be a continuous differentiable function satisfying (3.1), for some constants K > 0, a > 0 and all x,y R. Suppose that {X n } n 1 is a sequence of stationary random variables, defined on the probability space (Ω,F, P). Set X n,j = X j E(h( X j ) F j 1 ) (3.6) b n b n for some b n. Define ρ as (3.3) for α (0,1).
54 Then [n ] i=2 X n,j )X n,i i 1 f( j=1 0 f(z α (s ))dz α (s), (3.7) in D[0,1], where Z α (s) is an α stable Lévy process with Lévy measure ρ if [nt] P[X n,j > x F j 1 ] P tρ(x, ) if x > 0 (3.8) j=1 and [nt] P[X n,j < x F j 1 ] P tρ(,x) if x < 0. (3.9) j=1
55 Remark 7 The condition (3.5) is crucial for the proof of Theorem 3, it depicts the convergence of compensator jump measure. Conditions (3.8), and (3.9) also depict the the convergence of compensator jump measure respectively, so the proofs of Theorem 3 is similar based on the convergence of compensator jump measure.
56 The outline of identifying the limiting process
57 The outline of identifying the limiting process Set [nt] i 1 Y n (t) = f( X n,j )X n,i, Y (t) = i=2 t 0 j=1 f(z α (s ))dz α (s), [nt] S n (t) = X n,i. i=1
58 We set then µ n (ω;ds,dx) = ν n (ω;ds,dx) := n ε ( i n, X i (ω) bn i=1 n i=1 )(ds,dx), ε ( i n )(ds)p(x i b n dx) is the compensator of µ n by the independence of {X i } i 1. Set ζ n (ω;ds,dx) = n ε ( i n i=1, X i (ω) bn cn)(ds,dx), we have ϕ n (ω;ds,dx) := n i=1 ε ( i n )(ds)p(x i b n c n dx) is the compensator of ζ n (ω;ds,dx), where c n = E[h( X 1 b n )].
59 For S n (t), S n (t) = t 0 [nt] h(x)(µ n (ds,dx) ν n (ds,dx)) + ( X i h( X i )) b n b n [nt] =: Sn (t) + ( X i h( X i )). b n b n i=1 The predictable characteristics of S n (t) are i=1 C 22 n (t) = t 0 B 2 n(t) = 0, h 2 (x)ν n (ds,dx) s t( h(x)ν n ({s},dx)) 2.
60 For Y n (t), = Y n (t) t 0 + t 0 [nt] [ns] 1 h(f( i 1 + (f( i=2 j=1 [ns] 1 (h(f( j=1 [nt] j=1 i 1 =: Ỹ n (t) + (f( i=2 X n,j )x)(µ n (ds,dx) ν n (ds,dx)) [ns] 1 X n,j )x) f( X n,j ) X i 1 i h(f( b n j=1 j=1 j=1 X n,j )h(x))ν n (ds,dx) X n,j ) X i b n )) X n,j ) X i 1 i h(f( b n j=1 X n,j ) X i b n )).
61 The predictable characteristics of Ỹn(t) are B 1 n(t) = t 0 [ns] 1 (h(f( j=1 [ns] 1 X n,j )x) f( j=1 X n,j )h(x))ν n (ds,dx), C 11 n (t) = t 0 [ns] 1 h 2 (f( X n,j )x)ν n (ds,dx) s t( j=1 [ns] 1 h(f( j=1 X n,j )x)ν Cn 12 (t) = Cn 21 (t) = t 0 s t( [ns] 1 h(f( j=1 [ns] 1 h(f( j=1 X n,j )x)h(x)ν n (ds,dx) X n,j )x)ν n ({s},dx))( h(x)ν n ({s},dx))
62 We need to prove (B n, C n, λ n ) (B S n (t), C S n (t), λ S n (t)) P 0(c.f.Theorem A), where λ n is the compensated jump measure of Ỹn. It implies the tightness of Ỹn, which means that the subsequence of distribution of Ỹ n weakly converges to a limit. The predictable characteristics of different limiting processes are (B, C, λ) by the Theorem A. Furthermore, since (3.1), the martingale problem ς(σ(y 0 ), Y L 0, B, C, λ) has unique solution, P, by Theorem 6.13 in Applebaum (2009). We obtain the limiting process is unique, On the other hand, the predicable characteristics of 0 f(z α(s ))dz α (s) under P are (B, C, λ). We can identify the limiting process, 0 f(z α(s ))dz α (s), under P.
