Moment convergence of balanced Pólya processes

arXiv:1606.07022

Abstract

It is known that in an irreducible small Pólya urn process, the composition of the urn after suitable normalization converges in distribution to a normal distribution. We show that if the urn also is balanced, this normal convergence holds with convergence of all moments, thus giving asymptotics of (central) moments.
