Jul 9, 2011 at 22:24 comment added Pablo OK I edit my answer to add "is Cauchy" and maybe I have now understood what unknown was looking for.
Jul 9, 2011 at 22:18 comment added Tom LaGatta I read your second sentence as saying, "the sum of independent Cauchy variables is normal", which is not true. If you meant that the sum of independent Cauchy variables is Cauchy, then you are correct and I apologize for misreading your post. However, this doesn't give a stochastic integral approximation for $\sum f(t) X_t$, which I believe is what unknown was looking for.
Jul 9, 2011 at 22:12 comment added Pablo Tom : I have never said that i.i.d. sequences of Cauchy distributed variables satisfied LLN nor CLT. I just said that the law of partial sums were known. Wasn'it the question ?
Jul 9, 2011 at 22:06 comment added Tom LaGatta This is not true. The Cauchy distribution does not have finite mean, hence satisfies neither the Law of Large Numbers nor the Central Limit Theorem.
