In this paper, we study the asymptotic normality in high-dimensional linear regression. We focus on the case where the covariance matrix of the regression variables has a KMS structure, in asymptotic settings where the number of predictors, p, is proportional to the number of observations, n. The main result of the paper is the derivation of the exact asymptotic distribution for the suitably centered and normalized squared norm of the product between predictor matrix, X, and outcome variable, Y, i.e., the statistic ∥∥X′Y∥22, under rather unrestrictive assumptions for the model parameters βj. We employ variance-gamma distribution in order to derive the results, which, along with the asymptotic results, allows us to easily define the exact distribution of the statistic. Additionally, we consider a specific case of approximate sparsity of the model parameter vector β and perform a Monte Carlo simulation study. The simulation results suggest that the statistic approaches the limiting distribution fairly quickly even under high variable multi-correlation and relatively small number of observations, suggesting possible applications to the construction of statistical testing procedures for the real-world data and related problems. |
