Abstract

We obtain quantitative Four Moments Theorems establishing convergence of the laws of elements of a Markov chaos to a Pearson distribution, where the only assumptionwe make on the Pearson distribution is that it admits four moments. These results are obtained by rst proving a general carré du champ bound on the distance between laws of random variables in the domain of a Markov diusion generator and invariant measures of diusions, which is of independent interest, and making use of the new concept of chaos grade. For the heavy-tailed Pearson distributions, this seems to be the rst time that sucient conditions in terms of (nitely many) moments are given in order to converge to a distribution that is not characterized by its moments.
