13.4. The generalized Chebyshev theorem. Markov's theorem

Lecture



Chebyshev's theorem can easily be generalized to a more complicated case, namely, when the distribution law of a random variable   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem from experience to experience does not remain the same, but changes. Then instead of the arithmetic mean of the observed values ​​of the same value   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem with constant expectation and variance we are dealing with arithmetic average   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem different random variables, with different mathematical expectations and variances. It turns out that even in this case, if certain conditions are met, the arithmetic average is stable and converges in probability to a certain non-random value.

The generalized Chebyshev theorem is formulated as follows. If a

independent random variables with mathematical expectations

and dispersions

and if all variances are bounded above by the same number   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem :

  13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem ,

then with increasing   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem arithmetic average of observed values   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem converges in probability to the arithmetic mean of their mathematical expectations.

We write this theorem as a formula. Let be   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem - arbitrarily small positive numbers. Then with a sufficiently large   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem

Evidence. Consider the value

Her expectation is:

and the variance

Apply to value   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem Chebyshev's inequality:

or

Replace the right side of the inequality (13.4.2) each of the quantities   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem larger value   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem . Then the inequality will only intensify:

  13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem .

However small   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem , can choose   13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem so large that inequality holds

  13.4.  The generalized Chebyshev theorem.  Markovs theorem ;

then

whence, passing to the opposite event, we obtain the required inequality (13.4.1).

The law of large numbers can also be extended to dependent random variables. The generalization of the law of large numbers to the case of dependent random variables belongs to A. A. Markov.
