Moment Generating Functions
1 Generating Functions 1.1 The ordinary generating function We define the ordinary generating function of a sequence. This is by far the most common type of generating function and the adjective “ordinary” is usually not used. But we will need a different type of generating function below (the exponential generating function) so we have added the adjective “ordinary” for this first type of gene...
متن کاملAn analysis of the vectorial capacity using moment-generating functions
This paper describes a technique for analyzing the stochastic structure of the vectorial capacity using moment–generating functions. In such formulation, for an infectious disease transmitted by a vector, we obtain the generating function for the distribution of the number of infectious contacts (e.g., infectious bites from mosquitoes) between vectors and humans after a contact to a single infe...
متن کاملSome bilinear generating functions.
In the present paper, the author applies some of his earlier results which extend the well-known Hille-Hardy formula for the Laguerre polynomials to certain classes of generalized hypergeometric polynomials in order to derive various generalizations of a bilinear generating function for the Jacobi polynomials proved recently by Carlitz. The corresponding results for the polynomials of Legendre,...
متن کاملOn generating functions of Hausdorff moment sequences
The class of generating functions for completely monotone sequences (moments of finite positive measures on [0, 1]) has an elegant characterization as the class of Pick functions analytic and positive on (−∞, 1). We establish this and another such characterization and develop a variety of consequences. In particular, we characterize generating functions for moments of convex and concave probabi...
متن کاملOn composition of generating functions
In this work we study numbers and polynomials generated by two type of composition of generating functions and get their explicit formulae. Furthermore we state an improvementof the composita formulae's given in [6] and [3], using the new composita formula's we construct a variety of combinatorics identities. This study go alone to dene new family of generalized Bernoulli polynomials which incl...
