Abstract

UU-quantiles are applied in robust statistics, like the Hodges–Lehmann estimator of location for example. They have been analysed in the case of independent random variables with the help of a generalized Bahadur representation. Our main aim is to extend these results to UU-quantiles of strongly mixing random variables and functionals of absolutely regular sequences. We obtain the central limit theorem and the law of the iterated logarithm for UU-quantiles as straightforward corollaries. Furthermore, we improve the existing result for sample quantiles of mixing data.
