We provide several sharp inequalities regarding pn,X(θ) and NX(θ) denoting the smallest n for which pn,X(θ)≥1/2. As a main result, we derive the totally general inequality 1/2≤αX(θ)NX(θ)≤3d+1 , where αX(θ) (a.k.a. the Tukey depth) is the minimum probability that X is in a fixed closed halfspace containing the point θ. We also show several applications of our general results: one is a moment-based bound on NX(E[X]) , which is an important quantity in randomized approaches to cubature construction or measure reduction problem. 2023-04-04T02:08:03Z 2023-04-04T02:08:03Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00440-022-01186-1 https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/7466 en application/pdf Springer
