Size bias, sampling, the waiting time paradox, and infinite divisibility: when is the increment independent?
With X∗ denoting a random variable with the X-size bias distribution, what are all distributions for X such that it is possible to have X∗ = X+Y , Y ≥ 0, with X and Y independent? We give the answer, due to Steutel [17], and also discuss the relations of size biasing to the waiting time paradox, renewal theory, sampling, tightness and uniform integrability, compound Poisson distributions, infin...
متن کاملWaiting time paradox applied to transient times
When working with chaotic systems, the average length of a transient phase before a particular event occurs is often required. Examples of this include the transient phase before a control mechanism can be activated @1,2# or the length of a chaotic transient after a crisis has occurred @3#. In both cases, the transient occurs before iterates fall into a small region. For controlling chaos, this...
متن کاملthe search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

We prove that the q-Gaussian distribution is freely infinitely divisible for all q ∈ [0, 1].
متن کاملInfinite divisibility of interpolated gamma powers
Abstract This paper is concerned with the distribution properties of the binomial aX + bXα, where X is a gamma random variable. We show in particular that aX + bXα is infinitely divisible for all α ∈ [1, 2] and a, b ∈ R+, and that for α = 2 the second order polynomial aX+bX2 is a generalized gamma convolution whose Thorin density and Wiener-gamma integral representation are computed explicitly....
