Inequalities for the number of high-probability outcomes of a multinomial scheme
V. G. Mikhailov
Abstract:
In this paper, we give a series of lower bounds for the number $w(x)$
of the outcomes of a discrete random variables whose total probability
is no less than $x$. Several examples demonstrate that
these inequalities, under some conditions, allow us to estimate
the function $w(x)$ to very high accuracy. This research was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research,
grants 96–01–00531, 96–15–96092.
