Consider $N$ pairs of random variables $(X_i, Y_i)$. $X_i$ are iid, with $EX_i=0$ and $EX_i^2=1$. The same conditions hold for $Y_i$. Moreover all $X_i$ are independent of all $Y_j$. It seems very rea …

Let $X \in R^n$ be a random vector such that $$P(|X_i| > \epsilon) > e^{-\epsilon^2}$$ What is a tight bound on $$P(\sum_{i=1}^n |X_i| > \epsilon)$$ and on $$P(\max_{1\le i\le n} |X_i| > \epsil …

Let $X_n$ be a set of $N$ subgaussian random variables, not necessarily independent, with $E\exp(\lambda X_n) \le \exp(\lambda^2/2)$. Let $X=(X_1,\ldots, X_N)$ and $f:\mathbb R^N \rightarrow \mathbb R …

Let $X$ be a $p \times n$ matrix, with $p > n$. Now, suppose I sample $m < n$ columns from $X$ at random, without replacement. I would like to characterize the distance between the subspace generated …

Let $X$ be a $d$-dimensional random vector distributed according to probability measure $D$. At least the second moment of the coordinates of $X$ is finite. Consider $n+1$ samples $X_0, \ldots, X_n …
