✦ Synopsis


The class of N-dimensional probability density functions such that the generation of a random vector can be reconducted through a linear transformation to the generation of N independent random numbers is described.

Instances in physics when such functions can be used for parametrization in a Monte Carlo are discussed, in particular for random number generation according to the shape of an electromagnetic shower.
