An equivalent condition for the product of elements of an independent random sample on a compact algebraic group converging in distribution to some random variable as the sample size increases is obtained. Namely, a limit distribution…
Several bivariate beta distributions have been proposed in the literature. In particular, Olkin and Liu (2003) proposed a 3 parameter bivariate beta model, which Arnold and Ng (2011) extend to 5 and 8 parameter models. The 3 parameter model…
In several scale free graph models the asymptotic degree distribution and the characteristic exponent change when only a smaller set of vertices is considered. Looking at the common properties of these models, we present sufficient…
We propose a general new method, the conditional permutation test, for testing the conditional independence of variables $X$ and $Y$ given a potentially high-dimensional random vector $Z$ that may contain confounding factors. The proposed…
The classic central limit theorem and $\alpha$-stable distributions play a key role in probability theory, and also in Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. They both concern the paradigmatic case of probabilistic independence of the…
Structural independence is the (conditional) independence that arises from the structure rather than the precise numerical values of a distribution. We develop this concept and relate it to $d$-separation and structural causal models.…
Graphical models are a key class of probabilistic models for studying the conditional independence structure of a set of random variables. Circular variables are special variables, characterized by periodicity, arising in several contexts…
Let $X_1, X_2,\ldots, X_n$ (resp. $Y_1, Y_2,\ldots, Y_n$) be independent random variables such that $X_i$ (resp. $Y_i$) follows generalized exponential distribution with shape parameter $\theta_i$ and scale parameter $\lambda_i$ (resp.…
We compare a piecewise linear map with constant slope beta>1 and a piecewise linear map with constant slope -beta. These maps are called the positive and negative beta-transformations. We show that for a certain set of beta's, the…
The distribution of the sum of independent identically distributed uniform random variables is well-known. However, it is sometimes necessary to analyze data which have been drawn from different uniform distributions. By inverting the…
In this paper we have introduced a generalized version of alpha beta skew normal distribution in the same line of Sharafi et al. (2017) and investigated some of its basic properties. The extensions of the proposed distribution have also…
Let $ k >0 $ be an integer and $ Y $ a standard Gamma$(k)$ distributed random variable. Let $ X $ be an independent positive random variable with a density that is hyperbolically monotone (HM) of order $ k.$ Then $Y\cdot X$ and $Y/X $ both…
A novel approach towards construction of absolutely continuous distributions over the unit interval is proposed. Considering two absolutely continuous random variables with positive support, this method conditions on their convolution to…
For two independent, almost surely finite random variables, independence of their minimum (time) and the event that one of them is either greater, equal or less than the other (cause) is completely characterized. It is shown that, other…
Thurstone's latent-normal model, introduced a century ago to describe human preferences in psychometrics (1927), remains a cornerstone for modeling random rankings. Yet when the underlying normals differ in distribution, the joint law of…
We give a stochastic comparison and ordering of the Tracy-Widom distribution with parameter $\beta$. In particular, we show that as $\beta$ grows, the Tracy-Widom random variables get smaller modulo a multiplicative coefficient.
Two dimensional condensed matter is realised in increasingly diverse forms that are accessible to experiment and of potential technological value. The properties of these systems are influenced by many length scales and reflect both generic…
The computation and inversion of the noncentral beta distribution $B_{p,q}(x,y)$ (or the noncentral $F$-distribution, a particular case of $B_{p,q}(x,y)$) play an important role in different applications. In this paper we study the…
A random variable X is strictly stable if a sum of independent copies of X has the same distribution as X up to scaling, and is stable (in the broad sense) if the sum has the same distribution as X up to both scaling and shifting. Steutel…
We investigate variance bounds under symmetry constraints in classical, free, and Boolean probability, focusing on Bernoulli distributions and their noncommutative analogues, projections with trace \(p\). We show that symmetrizers under…
