In this paper, we introduce a new probability distribution, the Lasso distribution. We derive several fundamental properties of the distribution, including closed-form expressions for its moments and moment-generating function.…

The paragrassmann calculus proposed earlier is applied to constructing paraconformal transformations and paragrassmann generalizations of the Virasoro-Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond algebras.
