Let {p_n(x)} be orthogonal polynomials associated with the distribution dalpha(x) on the interval [a,b]. Also let rho=c(x-x_1)(x-x_2)...(x-x_l) (for c!=0) be a polynomial of ...

Discrepancy is a measure of the deviation of a point set from a uniform distribution. In general, the computation of the discrepancy of a point set is computationally ...

A distribution of values of a discrete variate represented graphically by plotting points (x_1,f_1), (x_2,f_2), ..., (x_k,f_k), and drawing a set of straight line segments ...

Random walk trajectories which are composed of self-similar jumps. They are described by the Lévy distribution.

A sequence X_1, X_2, ... of random variates is called Markov (or Markoff) if, for any n, F(X_n|X_(n-1),X_(n-2),...,X_1)=F(X_n|X_(n-1)), i.e., if the conditional distribution ...

The cumulative frequency in a frequency distribution divided by the total number of data points.

The ratio of the absolute frequency to the total number of data points in a frequency distribution.

Surrogate data are artificially generated data which mimic statistical properties of real data. Isospectral surrogates have identical power spectra as real data but with ...

A polynomial having random coefficients.

Let V be a real symmetric matrix of large order N having random elements v_(ij) that for i<=j are independently distributed with equal densities, equal second moments m^2, ...
