Asymptotic properties of false discovery rate controlling procedures   under independence
  We investigate the performance of a family of multiple comparison procedures for strong control of the False Discovery Rate ($\mathsf{FDR}$). The $\mathsf{FDR}$ is the expected False Discovery Proportion ($\mathsf{FDP}$), that is, the expected fraction of false rejections among all rejected hypotheses. A number of refinements to the original Benjamini-Hochberg procedure [1] have been proposed, to increase power by estimating the proportion of true null hypotheses, either implicitly, leading to one-stage adaptive procedures [4, 7] or explicitly, leading to two-stage adaptive (or plug-in) procedures [2, 21]. We use a variant of the stochastic process approach proposed by Genovese and Wasserman [11] to study the fluctuations of the $\mathsf{FDP}$ achieved with each of these procedures around its expectation, for independent tested hypotheses. We introduce a framework for the derivation of generic Central Limit Theorems for the $\mathsf{FDP}$ of these procedures, characterizing the associated regularity conditions, and comparing the asymptotic power of the various procedures. We interpret recently proposed one-stage adaptive procedures [4, 7] as fixed points in the iteration of well known two-stage adaptive procedures [2, 21].
