Rademacher random variables (that is, Pr[ξi=1]=Pr[ξi=−1]=1/2 ). The classical Littlewood-Offord problem asks for the best possible upper bound on the concentration probabilities Pr[X=x] . In this paper we study a resilience version of the Littlewood-Offord problem: how many of the ξi is an adversary typically allowed to change without being able to force concentration on a particular value? We solve this problem asymptotically, and present a few interesting open problems.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","status":"public","article_type":"original","extern":"1"}
