On the functional CLT for stationary Markov Chains started at a point

We present a general functional central limit theorem started at a point also known under the name of quenched. As a consequence, we point out several new classes of stationary processes, defined via projection conditions, which satisfy this type of asymptotic result. One of the theorems shows that if a Markov chain is stationary ergodic and reversible, this result holds for bounded additive functionals of the chain which have a martingale coboundary in L_1 representation. Our results are also well adapted for strongly mixing sequences providing for this case an alternative, shorter approach to some recent results in the literature.
