HONOGENEOUS FORMS IN TWO ORDINAL VARIABLES by JOHN L. HICRMaN in Canberra, A.C.T. (Australia)') We are interested in the number of ordinal solutions to the general equation F = a, where F is the two-variable form z(z'y"r,,; r + s = t ) with x , y ordinal variables, a an infinite ordinal constant, t

β¦ Synopsis
We apply a recent refinement of the Hardy-Littlewood method to obtain an asymptotic lower bound for the number of solutions of a linear diophantine inequality in three prime variables. Using the same ideas, we are able to show that a linear form in two primes closely approximates almost all real numbers lying in a suitably discrete set.

In this paper a series representation of the joint density and the joint distribution of a quadratic form and a linear form in normal variables is developed. The expansion makes use of Laguerre polynomials. As an example the calculation of the joint distribution of the mean and the sample variance i
A general distribution which will be called the noncentral generalized Laplacian (NGL) is introduced and its properties studied. Then a set of results are obtained which will give the necessary and sufficient conditions for a bilinear expression or a quadratic expression to be distributed as a NGL.
A new algorithm which preselects variables in non-linear system models is introduced by converting the problem into a variable selection procedure for a set of linearised models. Because on this result an algorithm which consists of a cluster analysis linearisation sub-region division procedure, a l
