We introduce a novel family of projected distributions on the circle and the sphere, namely the circular and spherical projected Cauchy distributions, as promising alternatives for modelling circular and spherical data. The circular…
It is shown that a family of distributions on the complex space is characterized as the only family such that the orbit of one distribution under a certain group of transformations on the complex space is the same as that under the group of…
We give two new simple characterizations of the Cauchy distribution by using the M\"obius and Mellin transforms. They also yield characterizations of the circular Cauchy distribution and the mixture Cauchy model.
We investigate the relationship between quasisymmetric and convergence groups acting on the circle. We show that the M\"obius transformations of the circle form a maximal convergence group. This completes the characterization of the…
M\"obius transformations of the extended complex plane are at the crossroads of many interesting topics, e.g., they form a group under composition, are the simplest form of rational function, and are a path to Lie theory. Quaternionic…
We study the projective derivative as a cocycle of M\"obius transformations over groups of circle diffeomorphisms. By computing precise expressions for this cocycle, we obtain several results about reducibility and almost reducibility to a…
This paper introduces two families of probability distributions for Bayesian analysis of hypertoroidal data. The first family consists of symmetric distributions derived from the projection of multivariate normal distributions under…
Maps on a parameter space for expressing distribution functions are exactly derived from the Perron-Frobenius equations for a generalized Boole transform family. Here the generalized Boole transform family is a one-parameter family of maps…
We give linear-time quasiconvex programming algorithms for finding a Moebius transformation of a set of spheres in a unit ball or on the surface of a unit sphere that maximizes the minimum size of a transformed sphere. We can also use…
Scattering transforms are a new type of summary statistics recently developed for the study of highly non-Gaussian processes, which have been shown to be very promising for astrophysical studies. In particular, they allow one to build…
Wide-angle images gained a huge popularity in the last years due to the development of computational photography and imaging technological advances. They present the information of a scene in a way which is more natural for the human eye…
In this paper we characterize compact extended Ptolemy metric spaces with many circles up to M\"obius equivalence. This characterization yields a M\"obius characterization of the $n$-dimensional spheres $S^n$ and hemispheres $S^n_+$ when…
Consider a uniform variate on the unit upper-half sphere of dimension $d$. It is known that the straight-line projection through the center of the unit sphere onto the plane above it distributes this variate according to a $d$-dimensional…

In this paper, we propose a new flexible distribution for data on the three-dimensional torus which we call a trivariate wrapped Cauchy copula. Our trivariate copula has several attractive properties. It has a simple form of density and…
For the family of multivariate probability distributions variously denoted as unified skew-normal, closed skew-normal and other names, a number of properties are already known, but many others are not, even some basic ones. The present…
This paper is concerned with the use of the stereographic projection to map the points of a design on the sphere in three dimensions onto a two-dimensional stereogram. Details of the projection and its attendant stereogram are given and the…
The problem of transformation selection is thoroughly treated from a Bayesian perspective. Several families of transformations are considered with a view to achieving normality: the Box-Cox, the Modulus, the Yeo & Johnson and the Dual…
We study the Equi-Baire one property families of M\"obius transformations on the Riemann sphere. For a loxodromic map $f$, we show its iterates $\{f^n\}$ form an orbitally Equi-Baire one family on the attracting basin. For a one-parameter…
Considering a linearly ordered set, we introduce its symmetric version, and endow it with two operations extending supremum and infimum, so as to obtain an algebraic structure close to a commutative ring. We show that imposing symmetry…
