چکیده

A general solution of the functional equation J f{x+y)dfii(y) = f(x) where / is a nonnegative function and ?i is a o--finite positive Borel measure on [0, oo ) is shown to be f(x) = p(x) exp (xa?) where p is a periodic function with every yep, the support of ft as a period. The solution is applied in characterizing Pareto, exponential and geometric distributions by properties of integrated lack of memory, record values, order statistics and conditional

Characterizations of the exponential distribution based on certain properties of its characteristic function

Next to the normal distribution, the exponential distribution is possibly the most widely referenced continuous probability law. It appears as a textbook or an inclass example in introductory probability and statistics courses, and constitutes the A and B of reliability and life testing. There exist numerous characterizations of the exponential distribution, most of them based on the "lack of m...

Exponential law as a more compatible model to describe orbits of planetary systems

  According to the Titus-Bode law, orbits of planets in the solar system obey a geometric progression. Many investigations have been launched to improve this law. In this paper, we apply square and exponential models to planets of solar system, moons of planets, and some extra solar systems, and compare them with each other.

Effects of Power-Law Distribution and Exponential with Uniform Pressures on Vibration Behavior of Reinforced Cylindrical Shell Made of Functionally Graded Materials under Symmetric Boundary Conditions

In this paper, the influence of the constituent volume fractions by changing the values of the power-law exponent with uniform pressure on the vibration frequencies of reinforced functionally graded cylindrical shells is studied. The FGM shell with ring is developed in accordance to the volume fraction law from two constituents namely stainless steel and nickel. These constituents are graded th...

On exponentiable soft topological spaces

An object $X$ of a category $mathbf{C}$ with finite limits is called exponentiable if the functor $-times X:mathbf{C}rightarrow mathbf{C}$ has a right adjoint. There are many characterizations of the exponentiable  spaces in the category $mathbf{Top}$ of topological spaces. Here, we study the exponentiable objects in the category $mathbf{STop}$ of soft topological spaces which is a generalizati...

Characterizations of the Exponential Distribution

In this note two characterizations of the exponential distribution are discussed, based on a generalization of the lack of memory property. These results were motivated by the notion of "relevation of distributions" introduced by Krakowski (1973).
