Abstract

A new ideal metric of order r>1 is introduced on ℝk and a thorough analysis of its metric properties is given. In comparison to the known ideal metric of Zolotarev this new metric allows estimates from above by pseudo difference moments and thus allows applications to stable limit theorems. As applications we give the right order Berry-Esséen type result in the stable case, obtain the limiting behaviour of multivariate summability methods and discuss the approximation problem by compound Poisson distributions.
