Theory of probability distributions | Types of probability distributions | Infinitely divisible probability distributions
In probability theory, a probability distribution is infinitely divisible if it can be expressed as the probability distribution of the sum of an arbitrary number of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. The characteristic function of any infinitely divisible distribution is then called an infinitely divisible characteristic function. More rigorously, the probability distribution F is infinitely divisible if, for every positive integer n, there exist n i.i.d. random variables Xn1, ..., Xnn whose sum Sn = Xn1 + … + Xnn has the same distribution F. The concept of infinite divisibility of probability distributions was introduced in 1929 by Bruno de Finetti. This type of decomposition of a distribution is used in probability and statistics to find families of probability distributions that might be natural choices for certain models or applications. Infinitely divisible distributions play an important role in probability theory in the context of limit theorems. (Wikipedia).

Duality Theorem In this video, I use a neat little trick to show that the limit as n goes to infinity of 2^n is infinity, by using the fact (shown before) that the limit of (1/2)^n is 0. Exponential Limit: https://youtu.be/qxlSclbmh-w Other examples of limits can be seen in the playlis
