The Lorenz Curve

Analyses of income data are often based on assumptions concerning theoretical distributions. In this study, we apply statistical analyses, but ignore specific distribution models. The main income data sets considered in this study are taxable income in Finland (2009) and household income in Australia (1967-1968). Our intention is to compare statistical analyses performed without assumptions of the theoretical models with earlier results based on specific models. We have presented the central objects, probability density function, cumulative distribution function, the Lorenz curve, the derivative of the Lorenz curve, the Gini index and the Pietra index. The trapezium rule, Simpson´s rule, the regression model and the difference quotients yield comparable results for the Finnish data, but for the Australian data the differences are marked. For the Australian data, the discrepancies are caused by limited data. JEL classification numbers: D31, D63, E64. Keywords: Cumulative distribution function, Probability density function, Mean, quantiles, Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient, Pietra index, Robin Hood index, Trapezium rule, Simpson´s rule, Regression models, Difference quotients, Derivative of Lorenz curve

AbstractGiven a rectangle containing uniformly distributed random points, how far are the points from the rectangle’s centre? In this paper we provide closed-form expressions for the cumulative distribution function and probability density function that characterise the distance. An expression for the average distance to the centre of the rectangle is also provided.

Moments Of Order Statistics

In this paper, the probability density function and the cumulative distribution function of the rth order statistic arising from independent nonidentically distributed (INID) Lomax, exponential Lomax and exponential Pareto variables are presented. The moments of order statistics from INID Lomax, exponential lomax and exponential Pareto were derived using the technique established by Barakat and Abdelkader. Also, numerical examples are given.

Abstract We establish generalized pre-Grüss inequality for local fractional integrals. Then, we obtain some inequalities involving generalized expectation, p−moment, variance and cumulative distribution function of random variable whose probability density function is bounded. Finally, some applications for generalized Ostrowski-Grüss inequality in numerical integration are given.

The Face

In this Chapter, we present application of Fourier analysis to probability, random variables and stochastic processes [1089, 1097, 1387, 1329]. Arandom variable, X, is the assignment of a number to the outcome of a random experiment. We can, for example, flip a coin and assign an outcome of a heads as X = 1 and a tails X = 0. Often the number is equated to the numerical outcome of the experiment, such as the number of dots on the face of a rolled die or the measurement of a voltage in a noisy circuit. The cumulative distribution function is defined by FX(x) = Pr[X ≤ x]. (4.1) The probability density function is the derivative fX(x) = d /dxFX(x). Our treatment of random variables focuses on use of Fourier analysis. Due to this viewpoint, the development we use is unconventional and begins immediately in the next section with discussion of properties of the probability density function.

Exponential functions have been extended to Hypergeometric functions. There are many functions which can be expressed in hypergeometric function by using its analytic properties. In this paper, we will apply a unified approach to the probability density function and corresponding cumulative distribution function of the noncentral chi square variate to extract and derive hypergeometric functions.

New Distribution

AbstractThis note focuses on a new one-parameter unit probability distribution centered around the inverse cosine and power functions. A special case of this distribution has the exact inverse cosine function as a probability density function. To our knowledge, despite obvious mathematical interest, such a probability density function has never been considered in Probability and Statistics. Here, we fill this gap by pointing out the main properties of the proposed distribution, from both the theoretical and practical aspects. Specifically, we provide the analytical form expressions for its cumulative distribution function, survival function, hazard rate function, raw moments and incomplete moments. The asymptotes and shape properties of the probability density and hazard rate functions are described, as well as the skewness and kurtosis properties, revealing the flexible nature of the new distribution. In particular, it appears to be “round mesokurtic” and “left skewed”. With these features in mind, special attention is given to find empirical applications of the new distribution to real data sets. Accordingly, the proposed distribution is compared with the well-known power distribution by means of two real data sets.
