Abstract

We obtain upper and lower bounds for the local distance ρ(v x , P x ). Here v x is the distribution of a set of strongly additive functions f x with respect to the usual frequency on the set of positive integers, and P x is the distribution of the sum of suitably chosen independent random variables. We only consider the case where f x (p) ∈ {0, 1} for all primes p.
