The product of distributions on R m

Cheng Lin-Zhi, Brian Fisher (1992)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

The fixed infinitely differentiable function ρ ( x ) is such that { n ρ ( n x ) } is a regular sequence converging to the Dirac delta function δ . The function δ 𝐧 ( 𝐱 ) , with 𝐱 = ( x 1 , , x m ) is defined by δ 𝐧 ( 𝐱 ) = n 1 ρ ( n 1 x 1 ) n m ρ ( n m x m ) . The product f g of two distributions f and g in 𝒟 m ' is the distribution h defined by error n 1 error n m f 𝐧 g 𝐧 , φ = h , φ , provided this neutrix limit exists for all φ ( 𝐱 ) = φ 1 ( x 1 ) φ m ( x m ) , where f 𝐧 = f * δ 𝐧 and g 𝐧 = g * δ 𝐧 .

Premium evaluation for different loss distributions using utility theory

Harman Preet Singh Kapoor, Kanchan Jain (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

For any insurance contract to be mutually advantageous to the insurer and the insured, premium setting is an important task for an actuary. The maximum premium ( P m a x ) that an insured is willing to pay can be determined using utility theory. The main focus of this paper is to determine P m a x by considering different forms of the utility function. The loss random variable is assumed to follow different Statistical distributions viz Gamma, Beta, Exponential, Pareto, Weibull, Lognormal and Burr....

Continuous selections on spaces of continuous functions

Angel Tamariz-Mascarúa (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

For a space Z , we denote by ( Z ) , 𝒦 ( Z ) and 2 ( Z ) the hyperspaces of non-empty closed, compact, and subsets of cardinality 2 of Z , respectively, with their Vietoris topology. For spaces X and E , C p ( X , E ) is the space of continuous functions from X to E with its pointwise convergence topology. We analyze in this article when ( Z ) , 𝒦 ( Z ) and 2 ( Z ) have continuous selections for a space Z of the form C p ( X , E ) , where X is zero-dimensional and E is a strongly zero-dimensional metrizable space. We prove that C p ( X , E ) is weakly orderable...
