Exact distributions of order statistics of dependent random variables from ln,p-symmetric sample distributions, n ∈ {3,4}

Abstract

AbstractIntegral representations of the exact distributions of order statistics are derived in a geometric way when three or four random variables depend on each other as the components of continuous ln,psymmetrically distributed random vectors do, n ∈ {3,4}, p > 0. Once the representations are implemented in a computer program, it is easy to change the density generator of the ln,p-symmetric distribution with another one for newly evaluating the distribution of interest. For two groups of stock exchange index residuals, maximum distributions are compared under dependence and independence modeling.
