On the variational distance of independently repeated experiments
<|reference_start|>On the variational distance of independently repeated experiments: Let P and Q be two probability distributions which differ only for values with non-zero probability. We show that the variational distance between the n-fold product distributions P^n and Q^n cannot grow faster than the square root of n.<|reference_end|>
