Aug 28, 2022 at 11:32 comment added Thomas Dybdahl Ahle do you have an intuition (or theorem) for when $C_2=(c\sqrt t)^t$ and $C_1=(ct/\log t)^t$ is achievable? Like I suppose it is for simple binomial and poisson distributions. Or maybe that's not even true?
Aug 25, 2022 at 13:30 comment added Iosif Pinelis @ThomasDybdahlAhle : Yes, this is true.
Aug 25, 2022 at 9:00 comment added Thomas Dybdahl Ahle So you can get $C_2(t) = (c t^{1/2+\varepsilon})^t$ and $C_1(t) = \left(\frac{ct}{\log t}\right)^t$ for any $\varepsilon>0$?
