Let Un be a U-statistic whose kernel depends on the size n of the sample under consideration. It is shown that when Un is suitably normalised its distribution function differs in Lp norm from the distribution function of a standard normal variable by a term of O(n-½).

Ergodicity, continuity, finite approximations and rare visits of general Markov chains are investigated. The obtained results permit further quantitative analysis of characteristics, such as, rates of convergence, continuity (measured as a distance between perturbed and non-perturbed characteristics), deviations between Markov chains, accuracy of approximations and bounds on the distribution function of the first visit time to a chosen subset, etc. The underlying techniques use the embedding of the general Markov chain into a wide sense regenerative process with the help of splitting construction.

We investigate sufficient conditions so that is subexponential. Here F is a distribution function on [0, ∞[, with finite mean. Some applications to risk theory and rates of convergence in renewal theory are given.
