Most of the characterizations of probability distributions are based on properties of functions of possibly independent random variables. We investigate characterizations of probability distributions through properties of minima or maxima…

By the well-known I.Kotlarski lemma, if $\xi_1$, $\xi_2$, and $\xi_3$ are independent real-valued random variables with nonvanishing characteristic functions, $L_1=\xi_1-\xi_3$ and $L_2=\xi_2-\xi_3$, then the distribution of the random…

Bergsma (2006) proposed a covariance $\kappa$(X,Y) between random variables X and Y. He derived their asymptotic distributions under the null hypothesis of independence between X and Y. The non-null (dependent) case does not seem to have…

Kagan and Shalaevski 1967 have shown that if the random variables $X_1,\dots,X_n$ are independent and identically distributed and the distribution of $\sum_{i=1}^n(X_i+a_i)^2$ $a_i\in \mathbb{R}$ depends only on $\sum_{i=1}^na_i^2$ , then…

If $X$ and $Y$ are independent random variables with distributions $\mu$ and $\nu$ then $U=\psi(X,Y)$ and $V=\phi(X,Y)$ are also independent for some $\psi$ and $\phi$. Properties of this type are known for many important probability…

We generalize the following univariate characterization of the Kummer and Gamma distributions to the cone of symmetric positive definite matrices: let $X$ and $Y$ be independent, non-degenerate random variables valued in $(0, \infty)$, then…

To quantify the dependence between two random vectors of possibly different dimensions, we propose to rely on the properties of the 2-Wasserstein distance. We first propose two coefficients that are based on the Wasserstein distance between…

A natural problem in the context of the coupon collector's problem is the behavior of the maximum of independent geometrically distributed random variables (with distinct parameters). This question has been addressed by Brennan et al.…

We study the maximal correlation coefficient $R(X,Y)$ between two stochastic processes $X$ and $Y$. In the case when $(X,Y)$ is a random walk, we find $R(X,Y)$ using the Cs\'{a}ki-Fischer identity and the lower semicontinuity of the map…

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…

In this paper, using inverse integral transforms, we derive the exact distribution of the random variable $X$ that is involved in the ratio $Z \stackrel{d}{=} X/(X+Y)$ where $X$ and $Y$ are independent random variables having the same…

Let $\{X_{1},\ldots,X_{N_1}\}$ and $\{Y_{1},\ldots,Y_{N_2}\}$ be two sequences of interdependent heterogeneous samples, where for $i=1,\ldots,N_{1},$ $X_{i}\sim \text{Kw-G}(x, \alpha_{i}, \gamma_{i};G)$ and for $i=1,\ldots,N_{2},$…

It is well known and readily seen that the maximum of $n$ independent and uniformly on $[0,1]$ distributed random variables, suitably standardised, converges in total variation distance, as $n$ increases, to the standard negative…

A characterization of the exponential distribution based on equidistribution conditions for maxima of random samples with consecutive sizes n-1 and n for an arbitrary and fixed n>2 is proved. This solves an open problem stated recently in…

Let $\{\xi_1,\xi_2,\ldots\}$ be a sequence of independent random variables, and $\eta$ be a counting random variable independent of this sequence. In addition, let $S_0:=0$ and $S_n:=\xi_1+\xi_2+\cdots+\xi_n$ for $n\geqslant1$. We consider…

It is well known that the ratio of two independent standard Gaussian random variables follows a Cauchy distribution. Any convex combination of independent standard Cauchy random variables also follows a Cauchy distribution. In a recent…

We study a new family of random variables, that each arise as the distribution of the maximum or minimum of a random number $N$ of i.i.d.~random variables $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_N$, each distributed as a variable $X$ with support on $[0,1]$. The…

We consider two random variables $X$ and $Y$ following correlated Gamma distributions, characterized by identical scale and shape parameters and a linear correlation coefficient $\rho$. Our focus is on the parameter: \[ D(X,Y) = \frac{|X -…

It is known that the normalized maxima of a sequence of independent and identically distributed bivariate normal random vectors with correlation coefficient $\rho \in (-1,1)$ is asymptotically independent, which may seriously underestimate…

Let $X_{i,n},n\in \mathbb{N},1\leq i\leq n$, be a triangular array of independent $\mathbb{R}^d$-valued Gaussian random vectors with correlation matrices $\Sigma_{i,n}$. We give necessary conditions under which the row-wise maxima converge…
