Popis: We establish concentration inequalities for Lipschitz functions of dependent random variables, whose dependencies are specified by forests. We also give concentration results for decomposable functions, improving Janson's Hoeffding-type inequality for the summation of graph-dependent bounded variables. These results extend McDiarmid's bounded difference inequality to the dependent cases.
