Abstract
For appropriate metrics characterizing various modes of stochastic convergence, it is shown that rates of convergence are preserved by a large class of functions. For example, the extensions of a Lipschitz function on a separable metric space S to the space of all probability measures on S with the Prohorov metric and to the space of all S-valued random variables with the usual metric associated with convergence in probability inherit the Lipschitz property. Consequently, just as with the continuous mapping theorem associated with ordinary convergence, new rate of convergence theorems can sometimes be obtained from old ones by applying appropriate mappings.
