Review text

Let X be a random variable that takes a finite number of values, say n, Q the concentration function of X extended for negative values by zero, and N(X,n) the number of discontinuity points of Q. Then \(N(X,n)=n\) for \(n\leq 2\), 3\(\leq N(X,3)\leq 4\), \(4\leq N(X,n)\leq n(n-1)/2+1\) for \(n\geq 4\), and all estimates are sharp.
