Abstract
Abstract We consider a polynomial scheme with N outcomes. The Pearson statistic is the classical one for testing the hypothesis that the probabilities of outcomes are given by the numbers p1, …, pN. We suggest a couple of N − 2 statistics which along with the Pearson statistics constitute a set of N − 1 asymptotically jointly independent random variables, and find their limit distributions. The Pearson statistics is the square of the length of asymptotically normal random vector. The suggested statistics are coordinates of this vector in some auxiliary spherical coordinate system.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this journal is to provide the latest information on the development of discrete mathematics in the former USSR to a world-wide readership. The journal will contain papers from the Russian-language journal Diskretnaya Matematika, the only journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences devoted to this field of mathematics. Discrete Mathematics and Applications will cover various subjects in the fields such as combinatorial analysis, graph theory, functional systems theory, cryptology, coding, probabilistic problems of discrete mathematics, algorithms and their complexity, combinatorial and computational problems of number theory and of algebra.
