Our main tool will be estimates of the Luxemburg norms of such forms. This will allow us to formulate the above-mentioned bounds. As an example we give estimates of tail probabilities for quadratic forms in bounded martingale increments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-09-23T09:59:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60E15", "60F10" ], "keywords": [ "dependent sub-gaussian random variables", "tail probabilities", "quadratic forms", "necessarily independent random variables", "luxemburg norms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
