Abstract

Let pn(x) and qn(x) be the densities of the n-fold convolutions of the distributions F and G, respectively. One proves estimates for\(\mathop {\sup }\limits_x /\rho _n (x) - q_n (x)|\), expressed in terms of moment characteristics of F — G, under certain restrictions on the densities of F and G. Similar problems are solved for two lattice distributions and for a lattice and a continuous distribution.
