Abstract In this paper, we determine the limiting distribution of the image of the Eichler–Shimura map or equivalently the limiting joint distribution of the coefficients of the period polynomials associated to a fixed cusp form. The limiting distribution is shown to be the distribution of a certain transformation of two independent random variables both of which are equidistributed on the circle $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$, where the transformation is connected to the additive twist of the cuspidal $L$-function. Furthermore, we determine the asymptotic behavior of the zeroes of the period polynomials of a fixed cusp form. We use the method of moments and the main ingredients in the proofs are additive twists of $L$-functions and bounds for both individual and sums of Kloosterman sums.

It is shown that, in a superposition of finitely many independent renewal processes, an observation from the limiting (when t →∞) joint distribution of backward and forward recurrence times at t can be simulated by simulating an observation of the pair (UW, (1 – U)W), where U and Ware independent random variables with U ~ uniform(0, 1) and W distributed according to the limiting total life distribution of the superposition process.

Abstract In the area of stress-strength models, there has been a large amount of work regarding the estimation of the reliability {R=\Pr(X<Y)} . The algebraic form for {R=\Pr(X<Y)} has been worked out for the vast majority of the well-known distributions when X and Y are independent random variables belonging to the same univariate family. In this paper, forms of R are considered when {(X,Y)} follow bivariate distributions with dependence between X and Y. In particular, explicit expressions for R are derived when the joint distribution are dependent bivariate beta and bivariate Kumaraswamy. The calculations involve the use of special functions.

In the area of stress-strength models, there has been a large amount of work as regards estimation of the reliabilityR=Pr⁡(X<Y). The algebraic form forR=Pr⁡(X<Y)has been worked out for the vast majority of the well-known distributions whenXandYare independent random variables belonging to the same univariate family. In this paper, forms ofRare considered when(X,Y)follow bivariate distributions with dependence betweenXandY. In particular, explicit expressions forRare derived when the joint distribution isbivariate exponential. The calculations involve the use of special functions. An application of the results is also provided.

For independent random variablesXandY,if the conditional distribution ofXgivenX+Ysatisfies certain conditions, then the joint distribution ofXandYis a member of a certain one-parameter exponential family. Extensions fornindependent random variables are given. A characterization for independent random variables involving order statistics is also given.

Sufficient conditions are given under which the absolute continuity of the joint distribution of conditionally independent random variables can be violated. It is shown that in the case of a dimension n>1 this occurs for a sufficiently large number of discontinuity points of one-dimensional conditional distributions.
