The unintended impact of housing provident fund on income inequality in urban China
We use the China Household Income Project (CHIP) data to evaluate the impact of the Housing Provident Fund (HPF) on income inequality in urban China. We find that urban residents differ significantly in their accessibility to and intensity of utilization

Properties and Applications of a New Family of Skew Distributions
We introduce two families of continuous distribution functions with not-necessarily symmetric densities, which contain a parent distribution as a special case.

A New Family of Distributions Based on Proportional Hazards
In this article, we introduce a new family of symmetric-asymmetric distributions based on skew distributions and on the family of order statistics with proportional hazards.

Analysis of distributions and simulation of demand and supply in a spider web model using statistica software [PDF]
The paper presents the relationships between prices, demand and supply in the electric bicyclemarket, which are described by spider web model. The aim of the work is to analyse the probabilitydistributions of price, demand and supply and to simulate ...

An Extension of the Truncated-Exponential Skew- Normal Distribution
In the paper, we present an extension of the truncated-exponential skew-normal (TESN) distribution. This distribution is defined as the quotient of two independent random variables whose distributions are the TESN distribution and the beta distribution ...

COVID-19: Nothing is Normal in this Pandemic
This manuscript brings attention to inaccurate epidemiological concepts that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. In social media and scientific journals, some wrong references were given to a “normal epidemic curve” and also to a “log-normal curve ...
