Let $X$ be a random variable that takes its values in $\frac{1}{q}\mathbb{Z}$, for some integer $q\ge2$, and consider $X$ rounded to an integer, either downwards or upwards or to the nearest integer. We give general formulas for the…

We study the characteristic function and moments of the integer-valued random variable $\lfloor X+\alpha\rfloor$, where $X$ is a continuous random variables. The results can be regarded as exact versions of Sheppard's correction. Rounded…

The bounds for absolute moments of order statistics are established. Let $X_1,\dots ,X_n$ be independent identically distributed real-valued random variables and let $X_{1:n}\le \dots \le X_{n:n}$ be the corresponding order statistics. The…

We study the exact constants in the moment inequalities for sums of centered independent random variables: improve their asymptotics, low and upper bounds, calculate more exact asymptotics, elaborate the numerical algorithm for their…

This note displays an interesting phenomenon for percentiles of independent but non-identical random variables. Let $X_1,\cdots,X_n$ be independent random variables obeying non-identical continuous distributions and $X^{(1)}\geq \cdots\geq…

In practice, the use of rounding is ubiquitous. Although researchers have looked at the implications of rounding continuous random variables, rounding may also be applied to functions of discrete random variables. For example, to infer the…

Let \{X_1, X_2, ...\} be a sequence of positive independent and identically distributed random variables of Pareto-type with index \alpha>0 and let \{N(t); t\geq 0\} be a mixed Poisson process independent of the X_i's. For t\geq 0, define…

Estimates are constructed for the deviation of the concentration functions of sums of independent random variables with finite variances from the folded normal distribution function without any assumptions concerning the existence of the…

Let $X$ be an observable random variable with unknown distribution function $F(x) = \mathbb{P}(X \leq x), - \infty < x < \infty$, and let \[\ \theta = \sup\left \{ r \geq 0:~ \mathbb{E}|X|^{r} < \infty \right \}. \] We call $\theta$ the…

Ratios of random variables often appear in probability and statistical applications. We aim to approximate the moments of such ratios under several dependence assumptions. Extending the ideas in Collomb [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris 285 (1977)…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of additive functionals of random walks in random scenery. We establish bounds for the moments of the local time of the Kesten and Spitzer process.These bounds combined with a previous moment convergence…

Let $X$ be a locally compact Polish space. A random measure on $X$ is a probability measure on the space of all (nonnegative) Radon measures on $X$. Denote by $\mathbb K(X)$ the cone of all Radon measures $\eta$ on $X$ which are of the form…

Random reshuffling with momentum (RRM) corresponds to the SGD optimizer with momentum option enabled, as found in many machine learning libraries like PyTorch and TensorFlow. Despite its widespread use, the convergence properties of RRM do…

Edgeworth-type expansions for convolutions of probability densities and powers of the characteristic functions with non-uniform error terms are established for i.i.d. random variables with finite (fractional) moments of order $s \geq 2$,…

This paper presents a saddlepoint approximation of the random-coding union bound of Polyanskiy et al. for i.i.d. random coding over discrete memoryless channels. The approximation is single-letter, and can thus be computed efficiently.…

This paper deals with sequences of random variables $X_n$ only taking values in $\{0,\ldots,n\}$. The probability generating functions of such random variables are polynomials of degree $n$. Under the assumption that the roots of these…

The aim of this paper is to study the full $K-$moment problem for measures supported on some particular non-linear subsets $K$ of an infinite dimensional vector space. We focus on the case of random measures, that is $K$ is a subset of all…

We provide moment bounds for expressions of the type $(X^{(1)} \otimes \dots \otimes X^{(d)})^T A (X^{(1)} \otimes \dots \otimes X^{(d)})$ where $\otimes$ denotes the Kronecker product and $X^{(1)}, \dots, X^{(d)}$ are random vectors with…

We study the $k$:th raw moment of a variable $R$ following the binomial distribution $\text{B}(n, p)$, where $n/k \rightarrow \beta > 0$. It is known that $\mathbb{E}(R^k)$ is bounded both from below and from above by functions of the form…

It is well known, that Fr\'echet means on non-Euclidean spaces may exhibit nonstandard asymptotic rates depending on curvature. Even for distributions featuring standard asymptotic rates, there are non-Euclidean effects, altering finite…
