Operational and harmonic-analytic aspects of quasi-probability distributions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
Husimi distributions and Wigner distributions are well-known quasi-probability distributions which appear in several contexts. In this paper, we show some remarkable aspects of these distribution functions related to geometric structures of generalized coherent state systems and operational quantum physics, and a scheme of formulating generalized ...

Bounds on the probability of radically different opinions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
We establish bounds on the probability that two different agents, who share an initial opinion expressed as a probability distribution on an abstract probability space, given two different sources of information, may come to radically different opinions regarding the conditional probability of the same event.

Partly Divisible Probability Distributions [PDF]

open access: yesForum Mathematicum 10, (1998), 687-697, 2005
Given a probability distribution $\mu$ a set $\Lambda (\mu)$ of positive real numbers is introduced, so that $\Lambda (\mu)$ measures the "divisibility" of $\mu$. The basic properties of $\Lambda (\mu)$ are described and examples of probability distributions are given, which exhibit the existence of a continuum of situations interpolating the extreme ...

G-casual Stable Probability Distributions [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
A generalization of stable and casual stable probability distribution is proposed. The notion of $\go G$-casual stability can be used to introduce discrete analogues of stable distributions on the sent $\mathbb Z$ of integers. In contrary to limit definition of stable distributions on $\mathbb Z$ our has algebraic character.

How Kirkwood and Probability Distributions Differ: A Coxian Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
Kolmogorov's first axiom of probability is probability takes values between 0 and 1; however, in Cox's derivation of probability having a maximum value of unity is arbitrary since he derives probability as a tool to rank degrees of plausibility. Probability can then be used to make inferences in instances of incomplete information, which is the ...

The Riff-Shuffle Distribution is Unimodal [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
We show that the probability mass function of the riff-shuffle distribution, also known as the minimum negative binomial distribution, is unimodal, but in general not log-concave.

Distributional Tail Estimation Through Its Characteristic Function [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
There is given a method for estimation of a probability distribution tail in terms of characteristic function. Key words: characteristic function; tail of a distribution.

Finite n Largest Eigenvalue Probability Distribution Function of Gaussian Ensembles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
In this paper we focus on the finite n probability distribution function of the largest eigenvalue in the classical Gaussian Ensemble of n by n matrices (GEn). We derive the finite n largest eigenvalue probability distribution function for the Gaussian Orthogonal and Symplectic Ensembles and also prove an Edgeworth type Theorem for the largest ...
