Kernel type density estimators are studied for random fields. A functional central limit theorem in the space of square integrable functions is proved if the locations of observations become more and more dense in an increasing sequence of domains.

AbstractThe empirical measure Pn for independent sampling on a distribution P is formed by placing mass n−1 at each of the first n sample points. In this paper, n½(Pn − P) is regarded as a stochastic process indexed by a family of square integrable functions. A functional central limit theorem is proved for this process. The statement of this theorem involves a new form of combinatorial entropy, definable for classes of square integrable functions.
