Non-asymptotic tail bounds for $D_{\text{Hellinger}}(P\|\hat{P}_N)$
Let P be a distribution on a finite set of size $k$ and let $\hat{P}_N=(N_1/N,\ldots,N_k/N)$ be the empirical distribution (frequencies) from a samples of size $N$. Consider the Hellinger distance ...

What is the order of the left tail of a mixture of non-central chi-square?
Let $\mu\sim N(0,1)$, $Z\sim N(\mu,1)$. Then $Z$ can be viewed as a mixture of Gaussians. It can also be viewed as a Gaussian but there is a prior for the mean.
Let $X\sim\exp(\lambda)$ where the ...
