✦ Synopsis

Straightforward generalizations of the classical Kotlarski characterization of normality using bivariate Cauchy distribution of quotients of independent r.v.'s are given. The symmet~ assumption in Kotlarski's result is omitted. Two larger families of bivarime distributions are considered: symmetric second kind beta and elliptically contoured measures. @ 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

We present two techniques for constructing sample spaces that approximate probability distributions. The first is a simple method for constructing the small-bias probability spaces introduced by Naor and Naor. We show how to efficiently combine this construction with the method of conditional probab
