Continuous distributions

Hyperbolic distribution

The hyperbolic distribution is a continuous probability distribution characterized by the logarithm of the probability density function being a hyperbola. Thus the distribution decreases exponentially, which is more slowly than the normal distribution. It is therefore suitable to model phenomena where numerically large values are more probable than is the case for the normal distribution. Examples are returns from financial assets and turbulent wind speeds. The hyperbolic distributions form a subclass of the generalised hyperbolic distributions. The origin of the distribution is the observation by Ralph Bagnold, published in his book The Physics of Blown Sand and Desert Dunes (1941), that the logarithm of the histogram of the empirical size distribution of sand deposits tends to form a hyperbola. This observation was formalised mathematically by Ole Barndorff-Nielsen in a paper in 1977, where he also introduced the generalised hyperbolic distribution, using the fact the a hyperbolic distribution is a random mixture of normal distributions.

What are Hyperbolas? | Ch 1, Hyperbolic Trigonometry

This is the first chapter in a series about hyperbolas from first principles, reimagining trigonometry using hyperbolas instead of circles. This first chapter defines hyperbolas and hyperbolic relationships and sets some foreshadowings for later chapters This is my completed submission t

Hyperbolic Coordinates

In this video, I introduce the hyperbolic coordinates, which is a variant of polar coordinates that is particularly useful for dealing with hyperbolas (and 3 dimensional versions like hyperboloids of one sheet or two sheets). Suprisingly (or not), they involve the hyperbolic trig functions

Hyperbola 3D Animation | Objective conic hyperbola | Digital Learning

Hyperbola 3D Animation In mathematics, a hyperbola is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set. A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other an

Marcos Kiwi: Random hyperbolic graphs

Abstract: Random hyperbolic graphs (RHG) were proposed rather recently (2010) as a model of real-world networks. Informally speaking, they are like random geometric graphs where the underlying metric space has negative curvature (i.e., is hyperbolic). In contrast to other models of complex

Smooth parametrizations of semi-algebraic sets were introduced by Yomdin in order to bound the local volume growth in his proof of Shub’s entropy conjecture for C∞ maps. In this minicourse we will present some refinement of Yomdin’s theory which allows us to also control the distortion. We
