Abstract

For more than three centuries, the classical scheme of independent Bernoulli trials, starting with the work of Jacob Bernoulli, has been one of the most popular topics in probability theory. It is ideal for setting and solving various practical problems. Many results have been obtained related to modifications of this scheme, but new situations and new problems appear that require further progress in the study of various random variables associated to one degree or another with independent Bernoulli trials. Solutions to some of these problems are presented in this paper.
