A general upper bound for the tail of the compound negative binomial distribution is constructed. By establishing a connection with the individual risk mode the upper bound is seen to be a (possibly degenerate) mixture of tails of gamma distribution. The bound is sharp in that it is an equality in t
An exact asymptotic formula for the tail probability of a multivariate normal distribution is derived. This formula is applied to establish two asymptotic results for the maximum deviation from the mean: the weak convergence to the Gumbel distribution of a normalized maximum deviation and the precis
