The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.

Inference via the Skewness‐Kurtosis Set
Summary Kurtosis minus squared skewness is bounded from below by 1, but for unimodal distributions, this parameter is bounded by 189/125. In some applications, it is natural to compare distributions by comparing their kurtosis‐minus‐squared‐skewness parameters. The asymptotic behavior of the empirical version of this parameter is studied here for i.i.d.

Bias Adjustment for Mean Squared Error Estimation in M‐Quantile Models for Small Area Estimation
Summary M‐quantile (MQ) regression provides a robust and flexible alternative to mixed models for small area estimation. However, several theoretical aspects remain underexplored. In this paper, a parametric bootstrap method is proposed to approximate the distributions of area‐specific MQ coefficients and applied to adjust the bias in the mean squared ...
