The Atılım University Department of Mathematics was founded in 2000 and it offers education in English. The Department offers students the opportunity to obtain a certificate in Mathematical Finance or Cryptography, aside from their undergraduate diploma. Our students may obtain a diploma secondary to their diploma in Mathematics with the Double-Major Program; as well as a certificate in their minor alongside their diploma in Mathematics through the Minor Program. Our graduates may pursue a career in academics at universities, as well as be hired in sectors such as finance, education, banking, and informatics. Our Department has been accredited by the evaluation and accreditation organization FEDEK for a duration of 5 years (until September 30th, 2025), the maximum FEDEK accreditation period achievable. Our Department is globally and nationally among the leading Mathematics departments with a program that suits international standards and a qualified academic staff; even more so for the last five years with our rankings in the field rankings of URAP, THE, USNEWS and WEBOFMETRIC.

Abstract

If P is a moment-indeterminate probability distribution, then it is desirable to present explicitly other distributions possessing the same moments as P. In this paper, a method to construct an infinite family of probability densities - called the Stieltjes class - all with the same moments is presented. The method is applicable for densities with support (0, infinity) which satisfy the lower bound: f(x) >= A exp{-ax(alpha)} for some A > 0, a > 0 and some alpha is an element of(0, 1/2):
