Abstract
- Given N points distributed at random on [0,1), let np, be the size of the largest number of points clustered within an interval of length p. Previous work finds Pr (np ≥ n), for n> N/2, and for n < N/2, p=1/L, L an integer. The formula for the case p=1/L is in terms of the sum of L × L determinants and is not computationally feasible for large L. The present paper derives such a computational formula.
