In the subsequent development, ∈ D is assumed to be a regular bounded domain, whose interior has positive Lebesgue measure, and with boundaryhaving nullLebesguemeasure. Here, Y(x), x Rd is a zero-mean Gauss- ianhomogeneousandisotropicrandomfieldwithvaluesin{R,displa∈ying}long-rangedependence. That is, Y is assumed to satisfy the following condition: Condition A1.

L k k k k k k The limit random variable of (1.1) will be denoted as S . The distribution of S will be ∞ ∞ referred to as the Rosenblatt-type distribution, or sometimes simply as the Rosenblatt distribu- tion because this is how it is known in the case d= 1. In that case, a discretized version in time of the integral (1.1) first appears in [35], and the limit functional version is considered in [42] in the form of the Rosenblatt process. In this classical setting, the limit of (1.1) is represented by a double Wiener-Itˆo stochastic integral (see [12]; [43]). Other relevant references include, for example, [2],[3], [15], [17], [24], [36], to mention just a few. The general approach considered here for deriving the weak-convergence to the Rosenblatt distribution is inspired by [42], which is based on the convergence of characteristic functions. This approach has also been used, re- cently, in [24], to study the characteristic functions of quadratic forms of strongly-correlated Gaussian random variables sequences. We suppose here d 2, and thus consider integrals of quadratic functions of long-range ≥ dependence zero-mean Gaussian stationary random fields. We pursue, however, a different methodology than in the case d = 1, which was based on the discretization of the parameter space. Adirectextension ofthesetechniques isnotavailable whend 2. Insteadofdiscretizing ≥ the parameter space of the random field, we focus on the characteristic function for quadratic formsfor Hilbert-valued Gaussian randomvariables (see, for example, [11]), andtake advantage of functional analytical tools, like the Karhunen-Lo`eve expansion and the Fredholm determi- nant formula, to obtain the convergence in distribution to a limit random variable S with ∞ Rosenblatt-type distribution. The double Wiener-Itˆo stochastic integral representation of S in the spectral domain leads ∞ to its series expansion in terms of independent chi-squared random variables, weighted by the eigenvaluesoftheintegraloperatorintroducedinequation(3.1)below. Theasymptoticsofthese eigenvalues is given in Corollary 2. The infinitely divisible property of S is then obtained as ∞ a direct consequence of the previous results derived, in relation to the series expansion of S , ∞ and the asymptotic properties of the eigenvalues. We also prove that the distribution of S is ∞ self-decomposable, and that it belongs, in particular, to the Thorin subclass. Theexistence and boundedness of the probability density of S then follows. ∞ The outline of the paper is now described. In Section 2, we recall the Karhunen-Lo`eve ex- pansion, introduce the Fredholm determinant formula, and use the referred tools to obtain the characteristic function of (1.1). In Section 3, we prove the weak convergence of (1.1) to the ran- domvariableS withaRosenblatt-typedistribution. ThedoubleWiener-Itˆostochasticintegral ∞ representation of S , its series expansion in terms of independent chi-square random variables, ∞ and the asymptotics of the involved eigenvalues are established in Section 4. These results are applied in Section 5 to derive some properties of the Rosenblatt distribution, e.g., infinitely divisible property, self-decomposability, and, in particular, the membership to the Thorin sub- class. Appendices A-C provide some auxiliary results and the proofs of some propositions and corollaries. NON-CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREMS 3 In this paper we consider the case of real-valued random fields. In what follows we use the symbols C,C ,M ,M , etc., to denote constants. The same symbol may be used for different 0 1 2 constants appearing in the text. 2. Karhunen-Lo´eve expansion and related results Thissection introduces somepreliminary definitions, assumptionsandlemmas hereafter used in the derivation of the main results of this paper. We start with the Karhunen-Lo`eve Theorem for a zero-mean second-order random field Y(x), x K Rd , with continuous covariance function B (x,y) = E[Y(x)Y(y)], (x,y) {K K ∈Rd ⊂Rd, d}efined on a compact set K of 0 Rd (see Section 3.2 in [1]). This theorem∈prov×ides⊂the fo×llowing orthogonal expansion of the random field Y : ∞ Y(x) = λ φ (x)η , x K, j j j ∈ j=1 Xp λ φ (x) = B (x,y)φ (y)dy, k N , φ ,φ = δ , i,j N , k k ZK 0 k ∈ ∗ i j L2(K) i,j ∈ ∗ (2.1) (cid:10) (cid:11) where η = 1 Y(x)φ (x)dx, for each k 1, and the convergence holds in the L2(Ω, ,P) k √λk K k ≥ A sense. The eigenvalues of B are considered to be arranged in decreasing order of magnitude, R 0 that is, λ λ λ λ .... The orthonormality of the eigenfunctions φ , j N , leads to t1he≥un2co≥rr·e·la·t≥ionko−f1t≥he rkan≥dom variables η , j N , with variance one, sincej ∈ ∗ j ∈ ∗ E[η η ] = B (x,y)φ (y)φ (x)dydx = λ φ (x)φ (x)dx = λ δ , j k 0 j k j j k j j,k ZKZK ZK with δ denoting the Kronecker delta function. In the Gaussian case, they are independent. For each T > 0, let us fix some notation related to the Karhunen-Lo`eve expansion of the re- striction tothesetD(T)ofGaussian randomfieldY,withcovariance function(1.4). ByR Y,D(T) we denote the covariance operator of Y with covariance kernel B (x,y) = E[Y(x)Y(y)], 0,T x,y D(T), which, as an operator from L2(D(T)) onto L2(D(T)), satisfies ∈ R (φ )(x) = B (x,y)φ (y)dy = λ (R )φ (x), l N , Y,D(T) l,T 0,T l,T l,T Y,D(T) l,T ZD(T) ∈ ∗ where, in the following, by λ (A) we will denote the kth eigenvalue of the operator A. In partic- k ular, λ (R ) and φ respectively denote the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions { k,T Y,D(T) }∞k=1 { k,T}∞k=1 of R , for each T > 0. Note that, as commented, B refers to the covariance function of Y,D(T) 0,T Y(x), x D(T) as a function of (x,y) D(T) D(T), which, underCondition A1, defines { ∈ } ∈ × a non-negative, symmetric and continuous kernel on D(T), satisfying the conditions assumed in Mercer’s Theorem. Hence, the Karhunen-Lo`eve expansion of random field Y holds on D(T), and its covariance kernel B also admits the series representation 0,T ∞ (2.2) B (x,y) = λ (R )φ (x)φ (y), x,y D(T), 0,T j,T Y,D(T) j,T j,T ∈ j=1 X where the convergence is absolute and uniform (see, for example, [1], pp.70-74).

Recall first that a positive operator A on a separable Hilbert space H is a trace operator if (2.4) A Tr(A) (A A)1/2ϕ ,ϕ < , k k1 ≡ ≡ ∗ k k H ∞ Xk D E whereA denotes the adjoint of A and ϕ is an orthonormal basis of the Hilbert space H (see ∗ { k} [34], pp. 207-209). A sufficient condition for a compact and self-adjoint operator A to belong to the trace class is ∞k=1λk(A) < ∞. For each finite T > 0, the operator RY,D(T) is in the trace class, since from equation (2.2), applying the orthonormality of the eigenfunction system φ , j N , and kPeeping in mind that B (0) = 1, we have { j,T ∈ ∗} 0,T ∞ (2.5) Tr(R ) = λ (R ) = B (x,x)dx = dx= Td D < , Y,D(T) j,T Y,D(T) 0,T | | ∞ j=1 ZD(T) ZD(T) X where D denotes the Lebesgue measure of the compact set D. Note that the class of compact | | and self-adjoint operators contains the class of trace and self-adjoint operators. Hence, under Condition A1, from equation (2.5), the restriction of Y to D(T) admits a Karhunen-Lo´eve expansion, convergent in the mean-square sense (i.e., in the L2(Ω, ,P)-sense), for any T > 0, A and for an arbitrary regular bounded domain D. Furthermore, for any k 1, ≥ (2.6) Rk f(x)= B∗(k)(x,y)f(y)dy, f L2(D(T)), Y,D(T) 0,T ∈ ZD(T) (k) where B∗ denotes 0,T B0∗,(T1)(x,y) = B0,T(x,y), k = 1, (k) (k 1) (2.7) B0∗,T (x,y) = B0∗,T− (x,z)B0,T(z,y)dz, k = 2,3,.... ZD(T) From equations (2.2) and (2.7), applying the orthonormality of φ , j N , one can obtain j,T ∈ ∗ (2.8) Tr(RYk,D(T))= j∞=1λkj,T(RY,D(T)) = ZD(T)B0∗,(Tk)(x,x)dx < ∞, k ∈N∗, X since, for every k 1, λ (R ) M λ (R )k = M λ (Rk ), for some positive ≥ | k Y,D(T) | ≤ | k Y,D(T) | | k Y,D(T) | constant M.

Weak convergence of the random integral S T This section provides the weak convergence of the random integral (1.1) to a Rosenblatt-type distribution, in Theorem 2. This results is based on the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the integral operator (see Theorem 1 below) α K 1 (3.1) (f)(x) = f(y)dy, f Supp( ), 0 < α < d, Kα x y α ∀ ∈ Kα ZD k − k with Supp(A) denoting the supportof operator A. Operator (3.1) can be related with the Riesz potential ( ∆) β/2 of order β, 0 < β < d, on Rd, formally defined as (see [41], p.117) − − 1 (3.2) ( ∆) β/2(f)(x) = x y d+βf(y)dy, − − − γ(β) Rdk − k Z where ( ∆) denotes the negative Laplacian operator, and − πd/22βΓ(β/2) 1 (3.3) γ(β)= = , 0 < β < d. Γ d−β c(d,β) 2 (cid:16) (cid:17) Indeed, except a constant, the function (1/ x y α) in equation (3.1) defines the kernel of the k − k Riesz potential ( ∆)(α d)/2 of order β = (d α), for 0 < α < d. Similarly, 1/ x y 2α is − − − k − k the kernel of the Riesz potential ( ∆)α d/2 of order β = (d 2α) on Rd, for 0< α < d/2. Recall that the Schwartz space−(Rd)−is the space of of in−finitely differentia(cid:0)ble functions(cid:1)on S Rd, whose derivatives remain bounded when multiplied by polynomials, i.e., whose derivatives are rapidly decreasing. Particularly, C (D) (Rd), with C (D) denoting the infinitely 0∞ ⊂ S 0∞ differentiable functions with compact support contained in D. TheFourier transform of the Riesz potential is understoodin the weak sense, considering the space (Rd). The following lemma provides such a transform (see Lemma 1 of [41], p.117): S Lemma 2.

Similar results to those ones presented in Theorem 3.2 of [48] can be derived for the spectral zeta function of the Dirichlet Laplacian on a bounded closed multidimensional interval of Rd (see also [13], for the case of d= 1). For a continuous function of the negative Dirichlet Laplacian, the explicit computation of its trace cannot always be obtained in a general regular bounded open domain of Rd. Specifically, the knowledge of the eigenvalues is guaranteed for highly symmetric regions like the the sphere, or regions bounded by parallel planes (see, for example, [30]; [31]; [32]). In particular, for the torus T2 in R2, the Spectral Zeta Function can be explicitly computed (see, for example, [6], Chapter 1, equation (1.49), pp. 28-29).

This condition holds for bounded slowly varying functions as in (1.6), in the 0 case where D≤ (0), with (0) = x Rd, x 1 . 1 1 ⊆ B B { ∈ k k ≤ } For the derivation of the limit distribution, when T , of the functional (1.1), we first −→ ∞ compute its variance, in terms of H , the Hermite polynomial of order 2. It is well-known that 2 Hermite polynomials form a complete orthogonal system of the Hilbert space L (R,ϕ(u)du), 2 the space of square integrable functions with respect to the standard normal density ϕ. They are defined as follows: Hk(u) = (−1)keu22 ddukke−u22, k = 0,1,.... In particular, for a zero-mean Gaussian random field Y, for k 1, ≥ (3.18) E H (Y(x)) = 0, E (H (Y(x)) H (Y(y))) = δ m!

Consider the uniform distribution on D(T) with the density: (3.19) P (x) = T d D 1I , x Rd, D(T) − − x D(T) | | ∈ ∈ where I denotes the indicator function of set D(T). x D(T) Let U∈and V be two independent and uniformly distributed inside the set D(T) random vectors. We denote ψ (ρ), the density of the Euclidean distance U V . Note that D(T) k − k ψ (ρ) = 0, if ρ > diam(D(T)), and ψ (ρ) is bounded, where diam(D(T)) is the di- D(T) D(1) ameter of the set D(T). Using the above notation, we obtain G( x y )dxdy = D(T)2E[G( U V )] k − k | | k − k ZD(T)ZD(T) diam(D(T)) (3.20) = D 2T2d G(ρ)ψ (ρ)dρ, | | D(T) Z0 for any Borel function G such that the Lebesgue integral (3.20) exists.
