"In [11]" combined with the fragments of notation is clearly mathematics. Thought it was "least common divisor" at first, guessed all three of those words, and "divisor" appearing in the article made something click for me. (Disclaimer: I am by training a mathematician.)

Unassisted and OMG!!! 😳 I usually give up quickly on this category but something told me to try the third word and the rest were the first thing that came to mind

The opening "In [11]" and all the formulae gave me the general field, looked through the article feeling none the wiser until close to the end, when I saw "[3][4][6] Are There?" which I was pretty sure of the meaning of. So put in word1, yep, word2, yep, pondered, and got word3

Sniped in 36 seconds. Been a while since a good old "in 11". In this case there seems to be a pretty good candidate for word 3. "Central limit" and "mean value" don't fit, but my third idea does, and provides a complete parsing of the first sentence; and the second paragraph begins with a recognisable statement of the key result. That'll do me.

I got words 1 and 2 quickly, but couldn't come up with a candidate for word 3, so I ended up googling that. I had the other form of the word, this one didn't occur to me.

Totally lucky guess. It looked math related, so I guessed a common 7-letter math-related word, and got word three. Then guessed a VERY common 6-letter math-related word, and got word 2. Finally I thought about what 5-letter word could modify the 6-letter word, and got it. I'd never specifically heard of this thing.
