Abstract
We develop a new Berry–Esseen bound for functionals of independent random variables by introducing a simple form of Chatterjee’s perturbative approach. The main result is applied to the weighted triangle counts in inhomogeneous random graphs, random field Curie–Weiss model, set approximation with random tessellations and random sphere of influence graph models. The rate of convergence is the best possible.
