On the Littlewood--Offord problem

الأصل · EN

The paper deals with studying a connection of the Littlewood--Offord problem with estimating the concentration functions of some symmetric infinitely divisible distributions. Some multivariate generalizations of results of Arak (1980) are given. They show a connection of the concentration function of the sum with the arithmetic structure of supports of distributions of independent random vectors for arbitrary distributions of summands.
