An Identity for Two Integral Transforms Applied to the Uniqueness of a Distribution via its Laplace-Stieltjes Transform
Gwo Dong Lin, Xiaoling Dou
It is well known that the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of a nonnegative random variable (or random vector) uniquely determines its distribution function. We extend this uniqueness t…
New Checkable Conditions for Moment Determinacy of Probability Distributions
Jordan M. Stoyanov, Gwo Dong Lin, Peter Kopanov
We have analyzed some conditions which are essentially involved in deciding whether or not a probability distribution is unique (moment-determinate) or non-unique (moment-indetermi…
Absolute moments in terms of characteristic functions
Gwo Dong Lin, Chin-Yuan Hu
The absolute moments of probability distributions are much more complicated than conventional ones. By using a direct and simpler approach, we retreat P. L. Hsu's (1951, J. Chinese…
Recent Developments on the Moment Problem
Gwo Dong Lin
We consider univariate distributions with finite moments of all positive orders. The moment problem is to determine whether or not a given distribution is uniquely determined by th…
Dependence between Path-length and Size in Random Digital Trees
Michael Fuchs, Hsien-Kuei Hwang
We study the size and the external path length of random tries and show that they are asymptotically independent in the asymmetric case but strongly dependent with small periodic f…
Optimal selection of the -th best candidate
Yi-Shen Lin, Shoou-Ren Hsiau, Yi-Ching Yao
In the subject of optimal stopping, the classical secretary problem is concerned with optimally selecting the best of candidates when their relative ranks are observed sequenti…
