Abstract

A new method is proposed for proving some theorems on the convergence of sequences of random quantities 驴 n that assume values in a set {0,1,...,n} to discrete probability distributions. The method is based on the investigation of definite numerical characteristics (called lattice moments) of asymptotic behavior of distributions of 驴 n and is illustrated by the examples of investigating the asymptotic behavior of the probability distribution of the solution space dimension of a system of independent random homogeneous linear equations over a finite field and that of the number of connected components of a random (unequiprobable) hypergraph with independent hyperedges.
