# A variational formula on the Cramér function of series of independent random variables

A variational formula on the Cramér function of series of independent random variables In (Zajkowski, Positivity 19:529–537, 2015) it has been proved some variational formula on the Legendre–Fenchel transform of the cumulant generating function (the Cramér function) of Rademacher series with coefficients in the space $$\ell ^1$$ ℓ 1 . In this paper we show a generalization of this formula to series of a larger class of any independent random variables with coefficients that belong to the space $$\ell ^2$$ ℓ 2 . http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Positivity Springer Journals
