Mod-ϕ Convergence

“The book is well written and mathematically rigorous. They authors collect a large variety of results and try to parallel the theory with applications and they do this rather successfully. It may become a standard reference for researchers working on the topic of central limit theorems and large deviation. … this is a useful book for a researcher in probability theory and mathematical statistics. It is very carefully written and collects many new results.” (Nikolai N. Leonenko, zbMATH 1387.60003, 2018)“This beautiful book (together with other publications by these authors) opens a new way of proving limit theorems in probability theory and related areas such as probabilistic number theory, combinatorics, and statistical mechanics. It will be useful to researchers in these and many other areas.” (Zakhar Kabluchko, Mathematical Reviews, September, 2017)
