Abstract

Let nn be a positive integer, let X=(X1,,Xn)\boldsymbol{X}=(X_1,\dots,X_n) be a random vector in Rn\mathbb{R}^n with bounded entries, and let (θ1,,θn)(\theta_1,\dots,\theta_n) be a vector in Rn\mathbb{R}^n. We show that the subgaussian behavior of the random variable θ1X1++θnXn\theta_1 X_1+\dots +\theta_n X_n is essentially determined by the subgaussian behavior of the random variables iHθiXi\sum_{i\in H} \theta_i X_i where HH is a random subset of {1,,n}\{1,\dots,n\}.
