Résumé

Considering the centered empirical distribution function $F_{n} - F$ as a variable in $𝕃^{p} (μ)$ , we derive non asymptotic upper bounds for the deviation of the $𝕃^{p} (μ)$ -norms of $F_{n} - F$ as well as central limit theorems for the empirical process indexed by the elements of generalized Sobolev balls. These results are valid for a large class of dependent sequences, including non-mixing processes and some dynamical systems.
