On the infinite divisibility of inverse Beta distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We show that all negative powers β a,b of the Beta distribution are infinitely divisible. The case b ≤ 1 follows by complete monotonicity, the case b > 1, s ≥ 1 by hyperbolically complete monotonicity and the case b > 1, s < 1 by a Levy perpetuity ...

Mathematics and the real world

open access: yesKoers : Bulletin for Christian Scholarship, 2000
In this article the initial discussion of the untenability of the distinction between “pure” and “applied" mathematics is followed by looking at alternative approaches regarding the relationship between mathematics and the “real world” - with ...

On a class of explicit Cauchy-Stieltjes transforms related to monotone stable and free Poisson laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We consider a class of probability measures $\mu_{s,r}^{\alpha}$ which have explicit Cauchy-Stieltjes transforms. This class includes a symmetric beta distribution, a free Poisson law and some beta distributions as special cases.

Classical and free infinite divisibility for Boolean stable laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We completely determine the free infinite divisibility for the Boolean stable law which is parametrized by a stability index $\alpha$ and an asymmetry coefficient $\rho$.

Characterizations and Infinite Divisibility of Certain Recently Introduced Distributions IV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Certain characterizations of recently proposed univariate continuous distributions are presented in different directions. This work contains a good number of reintroduced distributions and may serve as a source of preventing the reinvention and/or ...

Some infinite divisibility properties of the reciprocal of planar Brownian motion exit time from a cone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
With the help of the Gauss-Laplace transform for the exit time from a cone of planar Brownian motion, we obtain some infinite divisibility properties for the reciprocal of this exit time.

The de Finetti structure behind some norm-symmetric multivariate densities with exponential decay

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2020
We derive a sufficient condition on the symmetric norm ||·|| such that the probability distribution associated with the density function f (x) ∝exp(−λ ||x||) is conditionally independent and identically distributed in the sense of de Finetti’s seminal ...

A certain class of Laplace transforms with applications to reaction and reaction-diffusion equations

open access: yes, 2007
A class of Laplace transforms is examined to show that particular cases of this class are associated with production-destruction and reaction-diffusion problems in physics, study of differences of independently distributed random variables and the ...

Some new approaches to infinite divisibility

open access: yes, 2011
Using an approach based, amongst other things, on Proposition 1 of Kaluza (1928), Goldie (1967) and, using a different approach based especially on zeros of polynomials, Steutel (1967) have proved that each nondegenerate distribution function (d.f.) $F$ (
