โœฆ Synopsis

A unified treatment is given for mixtures of bivariate binomial distributions with respect to their index parameter(s). The use of probability generating functions is employed and a number of interesting properties including probabilities, factorial moments, factorial cumulants and conditional distributions are derived. Five classes of such mixtures are examined and several well known bivariate discrete distributions arc usad as illustrative examples. Biological applications are indicated including the fit of thrce bivariatc distributions to an actual set of human family data

Recently attempts have been made to characterize probability distributions via truncated expectations in both univariate and multivariate cases. In this paper we will use a well known theorem of Lau and Rao (1982) to obtain some characterization results, based on the truncated expectations of a func

For a scale mixture of normal vector, X=A 1ร‚2 G, where X, G # R n and A is a positive variable, independent of the normal vector G, we obtain that the conditional variance covariance, Cov(X 2 | X 1 ), is always finite a.s. for m 2, where X 1 # R n and m<n, and remains a.s. finite even for m=1, if an
