Book DetailsTranslations of Mathematical MonographsVolume: 65; 1986; 284 ppMSC: Primary 60
This is the first book specifically devoted to a systematic exposition of the essential facts known about the properties of stable distributions. In addition to its main focus on the analytic properties of stable laws, the book also includes examples of the occurrence of stable distributions in applied problems and a chapter on the problem of statistical estimation of the parameters determining stable laws. A valuable feature of the book is the author's use of several formally different ways of expressing characteristic functions corresponding to these laws.
ReadershipThis book is written for researchers in the area of probability theory and its applications, for engineers, and for graduate students in these areas.
