We propose estimators for the parameters of the Linnik L$(\alpha,\gamma)$ distribution. The estimators are derived from the moments of the log-transformed Linnik distributed random variable, and are shown to be asymptotically unbiased. The…

The paper deals with generalized positive linear operators based on P\'olya-Eggenberger distribution(PED) as well as inverse P\'olya-Eggenberger distribution(IPED). Initially, we give the moments by using Stirling numbers of second kind and…
In this paper we consider a class of nonparametric estimators of a distribution function F, with compact support, based on the theory of IFSs. The estimator of F is tought as the fixed point of a contractive operator T defined in terms of a…
We use the geometric concept of principal angles between subspaces to compute the noncommutative distribution of an expression involving two free projections. For example, this allows to simplify a formula by…
