In the first part, we obtain bounds for the small ball probability of random vectors under some smoothness assumptions on their density function. In the second part, we obtain Littlewood-Offord type estimates for quasi-norms. This generalizes a result which was previously obtained by Friedland and Sodin and by Rudelson and Vershynin.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-10-03T08:41:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "small ball estimates", "quasi-norm", "random vectors", "littlewood-offord type estimates", "small ball probability" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1410.0780F" } } }
