16.1 We study some properties of the convergence in law of random variables.16.2 Let $${\left( {{X_{n,k}}} \right)_{\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {n \geqslant 1} \\ {1 \leqslant k \leqslant {r_n}} \\ \end{array}}}$$ be a triangular array of independent, centered, and square-integrable random variables. For every n ≥ 1, write $$s_n = \left[ {\sum {_{1 \le k \le r_n } {\rm{ }}Var\left( {X_{n,k} } \right)} } \right]^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}}$$ and $${s_n} = \sum\nolimits_{1 \leqslant k \leqslant {r_n}} {{X_{n,k}}}$$. The Lindeberg condition is sufficient for S n /s n to converge in law to the normal law (Theorem 16.2.1). Note, incidentally, that this condition is also necessary in the most usual cases (as a consequence of a Feller’s theorem, which is not proved here).16.3 We prove the central limit theorem (Theorem 16.3.1), as well as some refinements of this theorem.
