By comparison, Chebyshev's inequality states that all but a 1/N fraction of the sample will lie within √ N standard deviations of the mean. Since there are N samples, this means that no samples will lie outside √ N standard deviations of the mean, which is worse than Samuelson's inequality.

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.
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]
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
Graph of number of coupons, n vs the expected number of trials (i.e., time) needed to collect them all E (T ) In probability theory, the coupon collector's problem refers to mathematical analysis of "collect all coupons and win" contests.
The theorem refines Chebyshev's inequality by including the factor of 4/9, made possible by the condition that the distribution be unimodal. It is common, in the construction of control charts and other statistical heuristics, to set λ = 3 , corresponding to an upper probability bound of 4/81= 0.04938..., and to construct 3-sigma limits to ...
