  2. Chebyshev's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_inequality

    [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."

  3. Chebyshev's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev's_theorem

    Chebyshev's sum inequality, about sums and products of decreasing sequences Chebyshev's equioscillation theorem , on the approximation of continuous functions with polynomials The statement that if the function π ( x ) ln ⁡ x / x {\textstyle \pi (x)\ln x/x} has a limit at infinity, then the limit is 1 (where π is the prime-counting function).

  4. Law of large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_large_numbers

    This theorem makes rigorous the intuitive notion of probability as the expected long-run relative frequency of an event's occurrence. It is a special case of any of several more general laws of large numbers in probability theory. Chebyshev's inequality. Let X be a random variable with finite expected value μ and finite non-zero variance σ 2.

  5. Coupon collector's problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupon_collector's_problem

    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 ...

    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]

    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.
