Is there an example that both Berry-Essen bound and DKW bound are attained?
The Berry-Essen bound stated that
$$\sup _{{x\in {\mathbb R}}}\left|\widehat{F_{n}(x)}-\Phi (x)\right|\leq C_{0}\cdot \psi _{0}$$
where $\psi _{0}(n)={\Big (}{\textstyle \sum \limits _{{i=1}}^{n}\...

Tighter Freedman's inequality for a special martingale difference sequence
Let $X_{1}, \ldots, X_{T} \in \{0, 1\}$ be a sequence of Boolean random variables with
$$
\mathbb{E}[X_{t} | X_{1}, \dots, X_{t - 1}] = p_{t}.
$$
Consider the sequence $Y_{t} := X_{t} - p_{t}$ (which ...

Anti-concentration bounds for folded normal and inverse of gaussian variables
Are there any easy to use bounds on sums of the following kind :
$$
\sum_{i = 1}^{i = N} |a_i| \geq P \\
a_i \sim \mathcal{N}(0, 1) \\
$$
and also for sums of the form :
$$
\sum_{i = 1}^{i = M} \...
