Abstract

Large deviation theorems are proved for non-degenerate U-statistical sums of degree m with kernel h(x(1),..,x(m))= x(1)...x(m) under the Cramer condition (Theorem 1) and under the Linnik condition (Theorem 2). The method of proof uses truncation and the contraction technique.

Key phrases
