Log-concavity and Inequalities for Chi-square, F and Beta Distributions with Applications in Multiple Comparisons
In several recent papers log-concavity results and related inequalities for a variety of distributions were obtained. This work is supposed to derive a nearly complete list of corresponding properties concerning the cdf’s and some related functions for Beta as well as for central and non-central Chi-square and F distributions, where hitherto only partial results were available. To this end we i...
متن کاملSome Results on Convexity and Concavity of Multivariate Copulas
This paper provides some results on different types of convexity and concavity in the class of multivariate copulas. We also study their properties and provide several examples to illustrate our results.
متن کاملLog-Concavity of Combinations of Sequences and Applications to Genus Distributions
We formulate conditions on a set of log-concave sequences, under which any linear combination of those sequences is log-concave, and further, of conditions under which linear combinations of log-concave sequences that have been transformed by convolution are log-concave. These conditions involve relations on sequences called synchronicity and ratio-dominance, and a characterization of some biva...

In this research, the nonlinear buckling analysis of Functionally Graded (FG) nano-composite beam reinforced by various distributions of Boron Nitrid Nanotube (BNNT) is investigated under electro-thermodynamical loading with considering initial geometrical imperfection. The analysis is performed based on nonlocal elasticity theory and using the Finite Element Method (FEM). Various distribu...
متن کاملLog-concavity of Stirling Numbers and Unimodality of Stirling Distributions
A series of inequalities involving Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds with adjacent indices are obtained. Some of them show log-concavity of Stirling numbers in three different directions. The inequalities are used to prove unimodality or strong unimodality of all the subfamilies of Stirling probability functions. Some additional applications are also presented.
