Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4On the Powers of the Kummer Distribution(Academic Publication Council, 2017) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet; MathematicsThe Kummer distribution is a probability distribution, whose density is given by f (x) = cx (alpha-1)(1 + delta x)(-gamma) e(-beta x), X > 0, where alpha, beta, delta > 0, gamma is an element of R and C is a normalizing constant. In this paper, the distributions of random variable X-P, p > 0, where X has the Kummer distribution, are considered with the conditions being IFR/DFR, some properties of moments depending on the parameters and the moment-(in) determinacy. In the case of moment-indeterminacy, exemplary Stieltjes classes are constructed.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 4Constructing Stieltjes Classes for M-Indeterminate Absolutely Continuous Probability Distributions(Impa, 2014) Ostrovska, Sofiya; MathematicsIf 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):
