Abstract

Let (Y1,...,Yn) have a joint n-dimensional Gaussian distribution with a general mean vector and a general covariance matrix, and let , Sn=X1+...+Xn. The asymptotics of as n-->[infinity] are shown to be the same as for the independent case with the same lognormal marginals. In particular, for identical marginals it holds that no matter what the correlation structure is.
