Abstract: | Empirical and rank processes of a sample are shown to converge under weak conditions. These results are then extended to analogous empirical and rank processes formed from the residuals of a linear model. Representations of the limiting processes are obtained by means of a special construction. The technicalities are honed to require few regularity conditions. |
