| Nov 3 at 1:29 | comment | added | πr8 | The comment on the second question is well-taken; I will try to be more careful on that front. I will try to clarify the first question, but it is essentially: "do the conditions written down in the first sentence of the post imply that the MGF can be bounded as in the display (for some $b \geq 0$)?". | |
| Nov 3 at 0:58 | comment | added | Iosif Pinelis | Your first question is unclear. I interpreted it as follows: does your condition on the moment-generating function imply a Bernstein-type condition on the moments? Your second question is even less clear, as it is quite unclear in what non-tautological terms you want the infimal $b$ to be described. Moreover, MathOverflow guidelines tell users to avoid answering questions that "request answers to multiple questions". | |
