Upper bound on the Levy-Prokhorov distance between the distributions of continuous Gaussian processes in terms of their covariances
Denote by $d$ the supremum metric on the space $C[0,T]$ of continuous real-valued functions on $[0,T]$:
$$
d(f,g) = \sup_{t \in [0,T]} |f(t)-g(t)|.
$$
Let $\rho$ be the Levy-Prokhorov metric on the ...

When is the image of $T \colon \ell^2 \to \ell^2$ a Gaussian random variable?
In finite dimensions, if $T$ is a linear operator and $x$ is a (centered) Gaussian random variable, then $Tx$ is again a (centered) Gaussian random variable.
Now suppose that $x$ is a (say, centered) ...
