Calculation of constants in lemma on the functions \(W(X)\) and \(G(T)\) in the method of smooth triangular functions (Q2684705)

The method of smooth triangular functions can be used to bound the uniform metric between probability distributions. In this paper, the author establishes explicit values for constants which appear in a particular lemma used when applying this method. These can, in turn, be used in establishing explicit bounds on the distance between \(n\)- and \((n+1)\)-fold convolutions of certain one-dimensional symmetric probability distributions.
