| Mar 5, 2017 at 19:17 | comment | added | esg | @i707107 Thanks, that's a useful addition. I suspect that the result for the uniform case is much older, but have been unable to spot it. | |
| Mar 5, 2017 at 2:09 | comment | added | Sungjin Kim | Similar question in case $p$ is uniform on $\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ was raised by me in a comment to math.stackexchange.com/questions/1941394/… and I answered my own question there. | |

| Mar 1, 2017 at 16:42 | comment | added | usul | Do we have good answers for easier cases, like $\mathbb{E} M_1$ for non-uniform $p$ and $\mathbb{E} M_2$ for uniform $p$? | |
