Let $Y=X_1+\cdots+X_N$ be a sum of a random number of exchangeable random variables, where the random variable $N$ is independent of the $X_j$, and the $X_j$ are from the generalized multinomial model introduced by Tallis (1962). This…

We want to compute the cumulative distribution function of a one-dimensional Poisson stochastic integral $I(\krnl) = \displaystyle \int_0^T \krnl(s) N(ds)$, where $N$ is a Poisson random measure with control measure $n$ and $\krnl$ is a…
