FREELY INDEPENDENT RANDOM VARIABLES WITH NON-ATOMIC DISTRIBUTIONS

We examine the distributions of non-commutative polynomials of non-atomic, freely independent random variables. In particular, we obtain an analogue of the Strong Atiyah Conjecture for free groups, ...

Generalized lambda distribution for flexibly testing differences beyond the mean in the distribution of a dependent variable such as body mass index

Conventional statistical methods often test for group differences in a single parameter of a distribution, usually the conditional mean (for example, differences in mean body mass index (BMI; kg m −2) ...
