To avoid tedious works to get bounds on the second moment of J1(Qθ)-J1(Qθ-CT )
with dependent data, we note that the R.H.S. of (A.18) is a degenerate U-statistic of order 2.
Thus we can apply Lemma 2 and have
Thm/2 [J1(Qθ) - J1(Qθ -Ct)] → N(0,c12) in distribution, (A.19)
where the definition of the asymptotic variance σ12 is based on the i.i.d. sequence having the
same marginal distributions as weakly dependent variables in (A.18). That is,
σ12 =E%[H1T(s,t,Qθ)-H1T(s,t,Qθ-CT)],
where the notation E% is expectation evaluated at an i.i.d. sequence having the same
marginal distribution as the mixing sequences in (A.18) (Fan and Li (1999), p. 248). Now, to
show that Thm/2 [ J1 (Qθ ) - J1(Qθ - Ct )] = Op (1) , we only need to show that the asymptotic
