[1] [2] The term Chebyshev's inequality may also refer to Markov's inequality, especially in the context of analysis. They are closely related, and some authors refer to Markov's inequality as "Chebyshev's First Inequality," and the similar one referred to on this page as "Chebyshev's Second Inequality."
In mathematics, Chebyshev's sum inequality, named after Pafnuty Chebyshev, states that if ...
In probability theory, the coupon collector's problem refers to mathematical analysis of "collect all coupons and win" contests. It asks the following question: if each box of a given product (e.g., breakfast cereals) contains a coupon, and there are n different types of coupons, what is the probability that more than t boxes need to be bought ...
Chebyshev's inequality guarantees that, for a wide class of probability distributions, no more than a certain fraction of values can be more than a certain distance from the mean. It was first formulated by his friend and colleague Irénée-Jules Bienaymé in 1853 and proved by Chebyshev in 1867.
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.
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
In mathematics, analytic number theory is a branch of number theory that uses methods from mathematical analysis to solve problems about the integers. [1] It is often said to have begun with Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet 's 1837 introduction of Dirichlet L -functions to give the first proof of Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions .
