Asymptotic Expansion in Multiplicative Form in the Central Limit Theorem in the Case of Gamma Distribution

Study of estimation of accuracy of approximations in the Central limit theorem (CLT) is one of the known problems in probability theory. The main result here is the estimate of the theorem of Berry — Esseen. Its low accuracy is well known. So this theorem guarantees accuracy of approximation 103 in the CLT only if the number of summands in the normed sum is greater than 160 000. Therefore, increasing the accuracy of the approximations in the CLT is an actual task. In particular, for this purpose are used asymptotic expansions in the Central limit theorem. As a rule, asymptotic expansions have additive form. Although it is possible to construct expansions in the multiplicative form. So V.M. Kalinin in [3] received the multiplicative form of the asymptotic expansions. However, he constructed asymptotic expansions for probability distributions (multinomial, Poisson, Student’s t-distribution). So very naturally the question arises: how to build multiplicative expansions in CLT? Secondly, what are the forms of decompositions in CLT in terms of accuracy approximations are better: additive or multiplicative? This paper proposes new asymptotic expansions in the central limit theorem which permit us to approximate distributions of normalized sums of independent gamma random variables with explicit estimates of the approximation accuracy and comparing them with expansions in terms of Chebyshev — Hermite polynomials. New asymptotic expansions is presented in the following theorem. Comparing multiplicative asymptotic expansion from theorem 1 with the additive asymptotic expansion from [5], we obtain that multiplicative asymptotic expansion of the density of normalized the sums in the case of gamma distribution give a much greater accuracy numerical calculations are compared with asymptotic additive expansion provided a much smaller number of calculations. The author would like to thank Vladimir Senatov for setting the task and paying attention to this work.
