Abstract
We study the convergence to the multiple Wiener-Itô integral from processes with absolutely continuous paths. More precisely, consider a family of processes, with paths in the Cameron-Martin space, that converges weakly to a standard Brownian motion in C_0([0, T]). Using these processes, we construct a family that converges weakly, in the sense of the finite dimensional distributions, to the multiple Wiener-Itô integral process of a function f \in L^2([0, T]^n). We prove also the weak convergence in the space C_0([0, T]) to the second order integral for two important families of processes that converge to a standard Brownian motion.
Keywords: Multiple Wiener-Itô integrals, weak convergence, Donsker theorem.
