✦ Synopsis

This paper is concerned with the Gini coefficient as a concentration measure of the distribution. The proposed formula for the aimputation of the Gini coefficient allows its decomposition according to different sub-groupe of the initial population, either exactly or approximately.

We give a formula for the general solution of a dth-order linear difference equation with constant coefficients in terms of one of the solutions of its associated homogeneous equation. The formula neither uses the roots of the characteristic equation nor their multiplicities. It can be readily gener

We consider a continuous path of bounded symmetric Fredholm bilinear forms with arbitrary endpoints on a real Hilbert space, and we prove a formula that gives the spectral flow of the path in terms of the spectral flow of the restriction to a finite codimensional closed subspace. We also discuss the

We prove a formula for the linearization coefficients of the general Sheffer polynomials, which unifies all the special known results for Hermite, Charlier, Laguerre, Meixner and Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials. Furthermore, we give a new and explicit real version of the corresponding formula for Meix

## Abstract Revised values are given for the rate coefficients of ethane and methane decomposition derived from the laser absorption shock tube measurements performed by Davidson et al. (1992, 1993). This revision results from a reassessment of the methyl absorption coefficient used in the original

An exact asymptotic formula for the tail probability of a multivariate normal distribution is derived. This formula is applied to establish two asymptotic results for the maximum deviation from the mean: the weak convergence to the Gumbel distribution of a normalized maximum deviation and the precis
