Expansions for the Distribution and Quantiles of a Regular Functional of the Empirical Distribution with Applications to Nonparametric Confidence Intervals
Let $T(\cdot)$ be a suitably regular functional on the space of distribution functions, $F$, on $R^s$. A method is given for obtaining the derivatives of $T$ at $F$. This is used to obtain asymptotic expansions for the distribution and quantiles of $T(F_n)$ where $F_n$ is the empirical distribution of a …
