On asymptotic behaviour for probabilities of moderate deviations of combinatorial sums

Abstract

We investigate an asymptotic behaviour for probabilities of moderate deviations of combinatorial sums of independent random variables having moments of order p > 2. We find zones in which these probabilities are equivalent to the tail of the standard normal law. The width of zone is a function from the logarithm of a combinatorial variant for Lyapunov’s ratio. The author earlier obtained similar results under Bernstein’s and Linnik’s conditions. The truncations method is used in proofs of the results.
