Download or read book One-dimensional Stable Distributions written by V. M. Zolotarev and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1986-06-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book specifically devoted to a systematic exposition of the essential facts known about the properties of stable distributions. In addition to its main focus on the analytic properties of stable laws, the book also includes examples of the occurrence of stable distributions in applied problems and a chapter on the problem of statistical estimation of the parameters determining stable laws. A valuable feature of the book is the author's use of several formally different ways of expressing characteristic functions corresponding to these laws.
