Description | It is shown that every discrete distribution with only non-zero probabilities is a partial-sums distribution, and, moreover, that it has infinitely many parent distributions. The paper generalizes and unifies the concept of partial-sums distribution. Besides, it generalizes some risk models in insurance and revises some approaches to mathematical modelling in quantitative linguistics. |
