This problem was solved in the case of an Itô semimartingale having a non-vanishing continuous martingale part. Here we focus on the case where the continuous martingale part vanishes and find faster rates of convergence, as well as very different limiting processes.

The function of the ith increment may depend on the current time, and also on the past of the semimartingale before this time. We study the convergence in probability of two types of such sums, and we also give associated central limit theorems. This extends known results when the summands are a function depending only on the increments, and this is motivated mainly by statistical applications.
