Distribution of the individual coordinates of a uniform random vector on a high-dimensional sphere
Let $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be a random vector uniformly distributed on the $n$-dimensional sphere of radius $R > 0$. Intuitively, i think that for large $p$ every coordinate $X_i$ is normally ...

What is the limiting marginal distribution of a fixed number of coordinates of a random point drawn uniformly on large-dimensional sphere?
Let $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_d)$ be uniformly-distributed on the sphere of radius $\sqrt{d}$ in $\mathbb R^d$. It is well-known that in the limit $d \to \infty$, the marginal distribution of $X_1$ converges ...
