As a consequence, we extend the Rosenthal inequality of Rio (2000) for $\\alpha$-mixing sequences in the sense of Rosenblatt (1956) to the larger class of $\\alpha$-dependent sequences. Starting from the deviation inequality, we obtain upper bounds for large deviations and an H{\\\"o}lderian invariance principle for the Donsker line. We illustrate our results through the example of intermittent maps of the interval, which are not $\\alpha$-mixing in the sense of Rosenblatt.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-01-21T09:42:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dependent sequences", "intermittent maps", "deviation bound", "applications", "donsker line" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160105567D" } } }
