✦ Synopsis
Let X 1 ; : : : ; X n be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with common distribution P on the real line.
Assuming that P has a smooth density, we construct a histogram based estimator P n; H and establish weak convergence of the empirical process √ n(P n; H -P)(f) f∈F under sharp conditions. If F is a class of indicators of sets, then the conditions imposed are necessary and su cient.

Motivated by the theoretical and practical results in compressed sensing, efforts have been undertaken by the inverse problems community to derive analogous results, for instance linear convergence rates, for Tikhonov regularization with `1-penalty term for the solution of ill-posed equations.

A complete description of parameter convergence in model reference adaptive control may be given in terms of the spectrum of the exogenous reference input signal.
The Brownian bridge is well known to have Hrlder continuous sample paths with exponent c~ < 1/2 with probability one and to be the weak limit in C[0, 1] of the smoothed empirical process based on the empirical frequencies polygon. We propose to extend this weak convergence to Hrlder spaces. A genera
