The Lukacs-Olkin-Rubin theorem without invariance of the "quotient"

Konstancja Bobecka, Jacek Wesołowski (2002)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The Lukacs theorem is one of the most brilliant results in the area of characterizations of probability distributions. First, because it gives a deep insight into the nature of independence properties of the gamma distribution; second, because it uses beautiful and non-trivial mathematics. Originally it was proved for probability distributions concentrated on (0,∞). In 1962 Olkin and Rubin extended it to matrix variate distributions. Since that time it has been believed that the fundamental...

Some properties and applications of probability distributions based on MacDonald function

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

In the paper the basic analytical properties of the MacDonald function (the modified Bessel function of the second kind) are summarized and the properties of some subclasses of distribution functions based on MacDonald function, especially of the types x n K n ( x ) , x ≥ 0 , x n K n ( x x ) , x ∈ 𝐑 and x n + 1 K n ( x ) , x ≥ 0 are discussed. The distribution functions mentioned are useful for analytical modelling of composed (mixed) distributions, especially for products of random variables having distributions of the exponential type. Extensive and...
