A Note on Sums of Independent Random Variables
provided (Xn) are either symmetric or positive, and in the first case p ≥ 2, and in the second case p ≥ 1. The main novelty here is the fact that, contrary to the classical inequalities, the constants here are independent of p. Certain particular cases of Lata la’s result had been known earlier (see e.g. Hitczenko (1993), Gluskin and Kwapień (1995) or Hitczenko, Montgomery-Smith and Oleszkiewic...
متن کاملComparison of Sums of Independent Identically Distributed Random Variables
Let Sk be the k-th partial sum of Banach space valued independent identically distributed random variables. In this paper, we compare the tail distribution of ‖Sk‖ with that of ‖Sj‖, and deduce some tail distribution maximal inequalities. The main result of this paper was inspired by the inequality from [dP–M] that says that Pr(‖X1‖ > t) ≤ 5 Pr(‖X1 +X2‖ > t/2) whenever X1 and X2 are independent...
متن کاملXXXX A Note on Sums of Independent Random
In this note a two sided bound on the tail probability of sums of independent, and either symmetric or nonnegative, random variables is obtained. We utilize a recent result by Lataa la on bounds on moments of such sums. We also give a new proof of Lataa la's result for nonnegative random variables, and improve one of the constants in his inequality.
متن کاملEstimating Sums of Independent Random Variables
The paper deals with a problem proposed by Uriel Feige in 2005: if X1, . . . , Xn is a set of independent nonnegative random variables with expectations equal to 1, is it true that P ( ∑n i=1 Xi < n + 1) > 1 e ? He proved that P ( ∑n i=1Xi < n + 1) > 1 13 . In this paper we prove that infimum of the P ( ∑n i=1Xi < n + 1) can be achieved when all random variables have only two possible values, a...
متن کاملOn the bounds in Poisson approximation for independent geometric distributed random variables
The main purpose of this note is to establish some bounds in Poisson approximation for row-wise arrays of independent geometric distributed random variables using the operator method. Some results related to random sums of independent geometric distributed random variables are also investigated.
