Abstract

Let $T$ denote a real function defined on random subsets of a given family of finite sets. The random variable $T$ is decomposed into the sum of the linear, the quadratic, the cubic etc. parts which are mutually uncorrelated. Applications of this decomposition to the asymptotics of the probability distribution of $T$ (as the sizes of random subsets and of finite sets increase) are discussed.
