Exponential family distributions | Multivariate continuous distributions | Continuous distributions | Conjugate prior distributions
In statistics, the generalized Dirichlet distribution (GD) is a generalization of the Dirichlet distribution with a more general covariance structure and almost twice the number of parameters. Random vectors with a GD distribution are completely neutral . The density function of is where we define . Here denotes the Beta function. This reduces to the standard Dirichlet distribution if for ( is arbitrary). For example, if k=4, then the density function of is where and . Connor and Mosimann define the PDF as they did for the following reason. Define random variables with . Then have the generalized Dirichlet distribution as parametrized above, if the are independent beta with parameters , . (Wikipedia).
(ML 7.7.A1) Dirichlet distribution
Definition of the Dirichlet distribution, what it looks like, intuition for what the parameters control, and some statistics: mean, mode, and variance.

(ML 7.8) Dirichlet-Categorical model (part 2)
The Dirichlet distribution is a conjugate prior for the Categorical distribution (i.e. a PMF a finite set). We derive the posterior distribution and the (posterior) predictive distribution under this model.

Random walks in random environments (RWRE) are well understood in the one-dimensional nearest-neighbor case. A surprising phenomenon is the existence of models where the walk is transient to the right, but with zero limiting velocity. More difficulties are presented by nearest-neighbor RWR

James Maynard: Half-isolated zeros and zero-density estimates
We introduce a new zero-detecting method which is sensitive to the vertical distribution of zeros of the zeta function. This allows us to show that there are few 'half-isolated' zeros, and allows us to improve the classical zero density result to N(σ,T)≪T24(1−σ)/11+o(1) if we assume that t
