Certain smoothing inequalities were proposed in the recent paper posted on arXiv at arxiv:1301.2828 in order to lessen the very large gap between the best correctly established upper and lower bounds on the constant factor in the nonuniform…

It is shown that the absolute constant in the Berry--Esseen inequality for i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables is strictly less than the Esseen constant, if $1\le n\le 500000$, where $n$ is a number of summands. This result is got both with…

A nonuniform version of the Berry-Esseen bound has been proved. The most important feature of the new bound is a monotonically decreasing function C(|t|) instead of the universal constant C=29.1174: C(|t|)<C if |t| > 3.2, and C(|t|) tends…

By a modification of the method that was applied in (Korolev and Shevtsova, 2010), here the inequalities $\Delta_n\leq0.3328(\beta_3+0.429)/\sqrt{n}$ and $\Delta_n\leq0.33554(\beta_3+0.415)/\sqrt{n}$ are proved for the uniform distance…

New Berry--Esseen-type bounds, with explicit constant factors, for the distribution of the Student statistic and, equivalently, for that of the self-normalized sum of independent zero-mean random variables are obtained. These bounds are…

We establish nonuniform Berry-Esseen (B-E) bounds for Studentized U-statistics of the rate $1/\sqrt{n}$ under a third-moment assumption, which covers the t-statistic that corresponds to a kernel of degree $1$ as a special case. While an…
