  2. Chebyshev's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_inequality

    The bounds these inequalities give on a finite sample are less tight than those the Chebyshev inequality gives for a distribution. To illustrate this let the sample size N = 100 and let k = 3. Chebyshev's inequality states that at most approximately 11.11% of the distribution will lie at least three standard deviations away from the mean.

  3. Chebyshev's sum inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_sum_inequality

    In mathematics, Chebyshev's sum inequality, named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, states that if ...

  4. Multidimensional Chebyshev's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multidimensional_Chebyshev...

    In probability theory, the multidimensional Chebyshev's inequality [1] is a generalization of Chebyshev's inequality, which puts a bound on the probability of the event that a random variable differs from its expected value by more than a specified amount.

  5. Law of large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_large_numbers

    In fact, Chebyshev's proof works so long as the variance of the average of the first n values goes to zero as n goes to infinity. [15] As an example, assume that each random variable in the series follows a Gaussian distribution (normal distribution) with mean zero, but with variance equal to 2 n / log ⁡ ( n + 1 ) {\displaystyle 2n/\log(n+1 ...

  7. Chebyshev's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_theorem

    Chebyshev's theorem is any of several theorems proven by Russian mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev. Bertrand's postulate, that for every n there is a prime between n and 2n. Chebyshev's inequality, on the range of standard deviations around the mean, in statistics; Chebyshev's sum inequality, about sums and products of decreasing sequences

  8. Cantelli's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantelli's_inequality

    In probability theory, Cantelli's inequality (also called the Chebyshev-Cantelli inequality and the one-sided Chebyshev inequality) is an improved version of Chebyshev's inequality for one-sided tail bounds. [1] [2] [3] The inequality states that, for >,

  9. Chebyshev–Markov–Stieltjes inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev–Markov...

    In mathematical analysis, the Chebyshev–Markov–Stieltjes inequalities are inequalities related to the problem of moments that were formulated in the 1880s by Pafnuty Chebyshev and proved independently by Andrey Markov and (somewhat later) by Thomas Jan Stieltjes. [1]
