Stat.Nonparametric.MomentProblems.FiniteMomentNearGaussianPerturbation
Finite-moment Gaussian perturbations: bounded density tilts that preserve any chosen finite segment of Gaussian moments while remaining non-Gaussian, arbitrarily close in total variation, and Carleman-certified.

The Hamburger--Carleman series
This module fixes the Carleman-series notation used by the finite Gaussian perturbation
construction. The series is built from the shared raw moments rawMoment and uses the positive
even orders 2 * (s + 1); closeness to the Gaussian is measured with the library's testing
total-variation distance Causalean.Stat.tvDist.
Given a real measure, the explicit Hamburger--Carleman series is given by the sum of inverse roots of its positive even raw moments. It is the Carleman series only for a measure whose even moments exist: a non-integrable even power has raw moment zero by the integral convention, and the zero base with a negative exponent makes that term infinite.
For a real measure, the Hamburger--Carleman notation equals its explicit integral-series formula.

A quantitative moment-growth certificate for Carleman divergence
The estimate |m_(2n)| ≤ 2 (2n)^n forces each inverse-root term to dominate a
constant multiple of n⁻¹ᐟ²; comparison with the divergent p-series then gives the
explicit Hamburger--Carleman certificate.
If a real measure has positive even raw moments bounded at the Gaussian scale, then its explicit Hamburger--Carleman series diverges. The hypothesis bounds the real-valued raw moments, which are zero for non-integrable powers, so the result carries Carleman content only for a measure whose even moments exist, as in its use for Gaussian perturbations.

Finite raw-moment equality transfers to finite cumulant equality
The set-partition formula for the cumulant of order k only uses moments whose
orders are at most k. This module packages that finite-dependence fact and its
measure-theoretic consequence.
Given two real measures, a finite cutoff, and equality of their raw moments through that cutoff, the source cumulants of the identity statistic agree at every order through the cutoff.

DensityPerturbation 2 core · 0 supporting The perturbed law has Radon--Nikodym density 1 + ε h relative to the standard Gaussian. ★ gaussianPerturbation_spec
Turning a bounded Gaussian-orthogonal function into a nearby probability law
The perturbed law has Radon--Nikodym density 1 + ε h relative to the standard
Gaussian. Pointwise boundedness of h gives nonnegativity and domination, while
orthogonality gives normalization and exact finite moment matching.
Given a signed profile and a real amplitude, the Gaussian density perturbation is given by weighting the standard Gaussian law by the positive part of one plus the scaled profile. Where one plus the scaled profile is negative the weight is zero, so this is the signed tilt only when that quantity is nonnegative.
Definition (Lean source)
If a profile is measurable, bounded by one, nonzero under the standard Gaussian law, and orthogonal to the required monomials, while its amplitude is positive, below one, and below the requested distance radius, then the resulting density perturbation is a distinct nearby probability law with the specified raw moments, all absolute moments, and a Gaussian-scale even-moment bound.

Non-Gaussian laws near the Gaussian with finitely many matching moments
This module combines a bounded finite-moment-orthogonal density perturbation with a quantitative Gaussian moment bound. The resulting law is a genuine non-Gaussian probability measure arbitrarily close in testing total variation to the standard Gaussian, matches any prescribed finite initial segment of raw moments and cumulants, has all absolute moments, and carries an explicit divergent Carleman series.
Given a finite moment cutoff of at least three and a strictly positive testing-distance radius, there is a non-Gaussian probability law within that radius of the standard Gaussian, with matching raw moments and source cumulants through the cutoff, all absolute moments, and a divergent Hamburger--Carleman series.

For a finite degree cutoff, there is a measurable profile bounded by one, nonzero under the standard Gaussian law, and orthogonal to every monomial through that cutoff.
