Exponential bounds for the hypergeometric distribution
Evan Greene, Jon A. Wellner
We establish exponential bounds for the hypergeometric distribution which include a finite sampling correction factor, but are otherwise analogous to bounds for the binomial distri…

Finite sampling inequalities: an application to two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics
Evan Greene, Jon A. Wellner
We review a finite-sampling exponential bound due to Serfling and discuss related exponential bounds for the hypergeometric distribution. We then discuss how such bounds motivate s…
