| | | | | In this post I would like to prove the following identity, motivated by this tweet. $latex \displaystyle n! \prod_{k=0}^n \frac{1}{x+k} = \frac{1}{x\binom{x+n}{n}} = \sum_{k=0}^n \frac{(-1)^k \binom{n}{k}}{x+k}$ The first of these equalities is straightforward by the definition of binomial coefficients. To prove the second, we make use of partial fractions. We write the expansion $latex \displaystyle... | |

| | | | | I recently learned of Craig's formula for the Gaussian Q-function from this blog post from John Cook. Here is the formula: Proposition (Craig's formula). Let $latex Z$ be a standard normal random variable. Then for any $latex z \geq 0$, defining $latex \begin{aligned} \mathbb{P}\{ Z \geq z\} = Q(z) = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}} \int_z^\infty \exp \left( -... | |
