Abstract

We investigate the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for convex sets established in [B. Klartag, A central limit theorem for convex sets, Invent. Math., in press. [8]]. We obtain bounds with a power-law dependence on the dimension. These bounds are asymptotically better than the logarithmic estimates which follow from the original proof of the central limit theorem for convex sets.
