$X_i$ follows Bernoulli distribution find UMVUE of $theta(1-theta)$
$begingroup$
Let $X_1,X_2,X_3 ...X_n$ be a random sample from Bernoulli
distribution with parameter $theta$.Find UMVUE of $theta(1-theta)$.
I know that $T=sum_{i=1}^{n}X_i$ is complete sufficient statistic for our paramenter $theta$.
I am trying to find out function of T which is a unique unbiased estimator of $theta(1-theta)$.
Now $Tsim Bin(n,theta)$
$E(T^2)-E(T)^2=V(T)$
$ntheta(1-theta)+n^2theta^2-n^2theta^2=ntheta(1-theta)$
$impliesdfrac{1}{n}(T^2-bar{T}^2)$ is umvue of $theta(1-theta)$
If I have sample size $n=10$ with observations $1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0$
obtain the value of this estimator.
Now I am stuck at this point that is $T^2$ is $T^2=sum_{i=1}^{n}X_i^2$ or $T^2=(sum_{i=1}^{n}X_i)^2$. Can someone help me and tell at what point I am doing things wrongly?

An unbiased estimator of $theta$ is $frac{T}{n} $ where $T=sumlimits_{k=1}^n X_k$.
From your approach that $operatorname{Var}_{theta}(T)=mathrm E_{theta}(T^2)-(mathrm E_{theta}(T))^2=ntheta(1-theta)$, it follows that an unbiased estimator of $theta^2$ is $frac{T(T-1)}{n(n-1)}$. You do not get unbiased estimator of $theta(1-theta)$ directly from this step.
An unbiased estimator of $theta(1-theta)$ is therefore $frac{T}{n}-frac{T(T-1)}{n(n-1)}$, which is also the UMVUE.

estimator I used $dfrac{1}{n}(T^2-bar{T}^2)$ if I take expectation I get same result how come mine is not umvue ? $dfrac{E(T^2)-E(E(T)^2)}{n}=dfrac{ntheta(1-theta)+n^2theta^2-n^2theta^2}{n}=theta(1-theta)$ but umvue is unique. Can you tell me whats wrong ? I didn't get it .

No need to define things like $bar T$; your notation is confusing. You appear to be doing something like $E(T^2)-(E(T))^2=ntheta(1-theta)impliesleft[E(frac{1}{n}(T^2-(E(T))^2))right]=theta(1-theta)$, and hence concluding that $frac{1}{n}(T^2-(E(T))^2)$ is UMVUE. This is not correct because $E(T)=ntheta$, so that your proposed estimator is not even a statistic (it depends on the parameter).
