Two concepts of symmetry for the distributions of positive random variables $Y$ are log-symmetry (symmetry of the distribution of $\log Y$) and R-symmetry [7]. In this paper, we characterise the distributions that have both properties,…

An interesting line of research is the investigation of the laws of random variables known as Dirichlet means. However, there is not much information on interrelationships between different Dirichlet means. Here, we introduce two…

The generalized binomial distribution in Tsallis statistics (power-law system) is explicitly formulated from the precise $q$-Stirling's formula. The $\alpha $-divergence (or $q$-divergence) is uniquely derived from the generalized binomial…

The generalized negative binomial distribution (GNB) is a new flexible family of discrete distributions that are mixed Poisson laws with the mixing generalized gamma (GG) distributions. This family of discrete distributions is very wide and…

We study the $\beta$ analogue of the nonintersecting Poisson random walks. We derive a stochastic differential equation of the Stieltjes transform of the empirical measure process, which can be viewed as a dynamical version of the…

The computation and inversion of the binomial and negative binomial cumulative distribution functions play a key role in many applications. In this paper, we explain how methods used for the central beta distribution function (described in…

We analyze the form of the probability distribution function P_{n}^{(\beta)}(w) of the Schmidt-like random variable w = x_1^2/(\sum_{j=1}^n x^{2}_j/n), where x_j are the eigenvalues of a given n \times n \beta-Gaussian random matrix, \beta…

Due to Girard's (sometimes called Waring's) formula the sum of the $r-$th power of the zeros of every one variable polynomial of degree $N$, $P_{N}(x)$, can be given explicitly in terms of the coefficients of the monic ${\tilde P}_{N}(x)$…

Pitman(2003)(and subsequently Gnedin and Pitman (2006) showed that a large class of random partitions of the integers derived from a stable subordinator of index $\alpha\in(0,1)$ have infinite Gibbs (product) structure as a characterizing…

We provide a large class of functions $f$ that are bell-shaped: the $n$-th derivative of $f$ changes its sign exactly $n$ times. This class is described by means of Stieltjes-type representation of the logarithm of the Fourier transform of…

The Gutenberg-Richter power law distribution of earthquake sizes is one of the most famous example illustrating self-similarity. It is well-known that the Gutenberg-Richter distribution has to be modified for large seismic moments, due to…

In this paper, algorithms are developed for computing the Stirling transform and the inverse Stirling transform; specifically, we investigate a class of sequences satisfying a two-term recurrence. We derive a general identity which…

We revisit the moment method to obtain a slightly strengthened version of the usual semicircular law. Our version assumes only that the upper triangular entries of Hermitian random matrices are independent, have mean zero and variances…

Let X be a locally compact Abelian group. We consider linear forms of independent random variables with values in X. In doing so, one of the coefficients of the linear forms is a random variable with a Bernoulli distribution. For some…

In inference problems involving a multi-dimensional parameter $\theta$, it is often natural to consider decision rules that have a risk which is invariant under some group $G$ of permutations of $\theta$. We show that this implies that the…

This paper aims to explore the inherent connection among Heisenberg groups, quantum Fourier transform and (quasiprobability) distribution functions. Distribution functions for continuous and finite quantum systems are examined first as a…

It is well known that the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of a nonnegative random variable (or random vector) uniquely determines its distribution function. We extend this uniqueness theorem by using the Muntz-Szasz Theorem and the identity for…

We introduce a series of numbers which serve as a generalization of Bernoulli, Euler numbers and binomial coefficients. Their properties are applied to solve a probability problem and suggest a statistical test for independence and…

Multitudinous probabilistic and combinatorial objects are associated with generating functions satisfying a composition scheme $F(z)=G(H(z))$. The analysis becomes challenging when this scheme is critical (i.e., $G$ and $H$ are…

In the present paper a generalization of Gurland distribution [3] is obtained as a beta mixture of the generalized Poisson distribution (GPD) of Consul and Jain [2]. The first two moments of the distribution and a recurrence relation among…
