2861Why the Difference of Two Copies Is Automatically SymmetricLet X and Y be i.i.d. with characteristic function \phi(u). Show that the characteristic function of D=X-Y is |\phi(u)| 2, and conclude that D is symmetric about 0.概率中等derivation未尝试面试订阅2862Factorized Joint MGF Means IndependenceSuppose \[ M X,Y (s,t)=\exp\!

Give the best Markov upper bound you can on P(L\ge 10).概率简单derivation未尝试面试订阅2867A Generalized Markov Bound from the Fourth MomentSuppose X is any random variable with E[X 4]=81. Use Markov's inequality on a suitable nonnegative variable to bound P(|X|\ge 6).概率中等derivation未尝试面试订阅2868Recovering Chebyshev from MarkovDerive Chebyshev's inequality from Markov's inequality. In other words, show that for any random variable X with mean and variance 2, \[ P(|X- |\ge a)\le 2 a 2 . \]概率简单derivation未尝试面试订阅2870Which Bound Is Better Here?A nonnegative random variable X satisfies E[X]=1 and Var (X)=4. Compare the Markov and Chebyshev upper bounds on P(X\ge 5), and say which one is tighter.概率中等derivation未尝试面试订阅2872How Many Bernoulli Trials for 99% Accuracy?You estimate a Bernoulli success probability by the sample mean of n i.i.d. trials. How large must n be to guarantee, via Hoeffding's inequality, that \[ P(| X n-p|\ge 0.02)\le 0.01? \]概率中等derivation未尝试面试订阅2879Numerical Poisson Overload BoundAn exchange gateway receives N\sim Poisson (100) messages in a fixed interval.
