Uniqueness of maximum values in discrete distributions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
We discuss the probability that among a number of random discrete values there is a unique maximal value. Some general inequalities are derived. As an application, we study the limit behavior of the probability of uniqueness for a subexponential number of binomially distributed variables.
