On the product of triangular random variables

Mridula Garg, Sangeeta Choudhary, Saralees Nadarajah (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We derive the probability density function (pdf) for the product of three independent triangular random variables. It involves consideration of various cases and subcases. We obtain the pdf for one subcase and present the remaining cases in tabular form. We also indicate how to calculate the pdf for the product of n triangular random variables.

On d-finite tuples in random variable structures

Shichang Song (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that the d-finite tuples in models of ARV are precisely the discrete random variables. Then, we apply d-finite tuples to the work by Keisler, Hoover, Fajardo, and Sun concerning saturated probability spaces. In particular, we strengthen a result in Keisler and Sun's recent paper.

Conditional differential equations

Celina Rom (2016)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce and study conditional differential equations, a kind of random differential equations. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution of such an equation. We apply our main result to a Malthus type model.

On random split of the segment

Milena Bieniek, Dominik Szynal (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider a partition of the interval [0,1] by two partition procedures. In the first a chosen piece of [0,1] is split into halves, in the second it is split by uniformly distributed points. Initially, the interval [0,1] is divided either into halves or by a uniformly distributed random variable. Next a piece to be split is chosen either with probability equal to its length or each piece is chosen with equal probability, and then the chosen piece is split by one of the above procedures....

Józef Marcinkiewicz: analysis and probability

N. H. Bingham (2011)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We briefly review Marcinkiewicz's work, on analysis, on probability, and on the interplay between the two. Our emphasis is on the continuing vitality of Marcinkiewicz's work, as evidenced by its influence on the standard works. What is striking is how many of the themes that Marcinkiewicz studied (alone, or with Zygmund) are very much alive today. What this demonstrates is that Marcinkiewicz and Zygmund, as well as having extraordinary mathematical ability, also had excellent mathematical...

An extended problem to Bertrand's paradox

Mostafa K. Ardakani, Shaun S. Wulff (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Bertrand's paradox is a longstanding problem within the classical interpretation of probability theory. The solutions 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4 were proposed using three different approaches to model the problem. In this article, an extended problem, of which Bertrand's paradox is a special case, is proposed and solved. For the special case, it is shown that the corresponding solution is 1/3. Moreover, the reasons of inconsistency are discussed and a proper modeling approach is determined by...
