We prove Berry–Esseen theorems for sums \( S_n=\sum _{j=0}^{n-1}f_j\circ T_{j-1}\circ \cdots \circ T_1\circ T_0\) where \(f_j\) are functions with uniformly bounded “variation”and \(T_j\) is a sequence of expanding maps. Using symbolic representations similar result follow for maps \(T_j\) in a small \(C^1\) neighborhood of an Axiom A map and Hölder continuous functions \(f_j\) . All of our results are already new for a single map \(T_j=T\) and a sequence of different functions \((f_j)\) .
