Oct 25, 2011 at 15:04 comment added Fan Zhang @Ori Gurel-Gurevich I saw from wiki that "Then the probability distribution of X(k) is a Beta distribution with parameters k and n − k + 1" And how you get Xi has the above variance and Gaussian tail? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…
Oct 24, 2011 at 15:47 comment added Fan Zhang And my new question is: how to determine the constant $K$?
Oct 24, 2011 at 6:42 comment added Ori Gurel-Gurevich This is a classical birthday paradox argument. I've edited my answer to include the argument.
