We establish the asymptotic normality of the sample principal components of functional stochastic processes under nonrestrictive assumptions which admit nonlinear functional time series models. We show that the aforementioned asymptotic depends only on the asymptotic normality of the sample...

In the time series literature one can often find the claim that the periodogram ordinates of an iid sequence at the Fourier frequencies behave like an iid standard exponential sequence. We review some results about functions of these periodogram ordinates, including the convergence of extremes,...
