Relations for the marginal, joint, conditional characteristic functions of k-th upper and lower record values from generalized Pareto distribution and inverse generalized Pareto distribution are given.
In this article we discuss the Catalan and super-Catalan (or Schröder) numbers. We start with some combinatorial interpretations of those numbers. We study two probability measures in the context of free probability, one whose moments are super-Catalan, and another, whose even moments are super-Catalan and odd moments are zero. With the use of the latter we also show some new formulae for evaluation of the Catalans in terms of super-Catalans and vice-versa.
We will show that the conditional first moment of the free deformed Poisson random variables (q = 0) corresponding to operators fulfilling the free relation is a linear function of the regression and the conditional variance also is a linear function of the regression. For this purpose we will first demonstrate some properties of the Wick product and then we will concentrate on the free deformed Poisson random variables.
We investigate two constructions that, starting with two bivariate copulas, give rise to a new bivariate and trivariate copula, respectively. In particular, these constructions are generalizations of the -product and the -product for copulas introduced by Darsow, Nguyen and Olsen in 1992. Some properties of these constructions are studied, especially their relationships with ordinal sums and shuffles of Min.
It is a well-known fact that genetic sequences may contain sections with repeated units, called repeats, that differ in length over a population, with a length distribution of geometric type. A simple class of recombination models with single crossovers is analysed that result in equilibrium distributions of this type. Due to the nonlinear and infinite-dimensional nature of these models, their analysis requires some nontrivial tools from measure theory and functional analysis, which makes them interesting...
The concept of robustness given by Zieliński (1977) is considered in cases where violations of models are generated by weight functions. Uniformly most bias-robust estimates of the scale parameter, based on order statistics, are obtained for some statistical models. Extensions of results of Zieliński (1983) and Bartoszewicz (1986) are given.
