We derive some inequalities involving first four central moments of discrete and continuous distributions. Bounds for the eigenvalues and spread of a matrix are obtained when all its eigenvalues are real. Likewise, we discuss bounds for the roots and span of a polynomial equation.
We discuss some extensions and refinements of the variance bounds for both real and complex numbers. The related bounds for the eigenvalues and spread of a matrix are also derived here.
It is shown that Newton's inequalities and the related Maclaurin's inequalities provide several refinements of the fundamental Arithmetic mean - Geometric mean - Harmonic mean inequality in terms of the means and variance of positive real numbers. We also obtain some inequalities involving third and fourth central moments of real numbers.
We prove some inequalities involving fourth central moment of a random variable that takes values in a given finite interval. Both discrete and continuous cases are considered. Bounds for the spread are obtained when a given nxn complex matrix has real eigenvalues. Likewise, we discuss bounds for the spans of polynomial equations.
We show that various old and new bounds involving eigenvalues of a complex n x n matrix are immediate consequences of the inequalities involving variance of real and complex numbers.
We provide an elementary proof of the lower bound for the variance of continuous unimodal distributions and obtain analogous bounds for the higher order central moments. A lower bound for the rth central moment of discrete distribution is given and compared favorably with a related bound for discrete unimodal distribution in literature.
