Characterizations of Univariate Continuous Distributions

Provides in an organized manner characterizations of univariate probability distributions with many new results published in this area since the 1978 work of Golambos & Kotz "Characterizations of Probability Distributions" (Springer), together with applications of the theory in model fitting and predictions.

Provides up-to-date results not available elsewhere Provides methods for fitting models to data Provides methods of how the theory can be applied in data analysis and model fitting Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
