Inequalities for the number of high-probability outcomes of a multinomial scheme
Diskretnaya Matematika, Tome 10 (1998) no. 2, pp. 45-51
In this paper, we give a series of lower bounds for the number $w(x)$ of the outcomes of a discrete random variables whose total probability is no less than $x$. Several examples demonstrate that these inequalities, under some conditions, allow us to estimate the function $w(x)$ to very high accuracy.
