Two-sided estimates for constants in the Marcinkiewicz inequalities (Q1037011)

Sharp estimates for constants in the Marcinkiewicz inequalities are derived for symmetric independent random variables. The estimates of the left-hand and right-hand constants are roughly equivalent. Similar estimates for self-normalized sums and new comparative estimates of increasing for some symmetric polynomial are derived as well. The references contain 14 bibliographical hints: \textit{A.
