Synopsis

Translated from the Russian. The main problem of the arithmetic of probability distributions is the study of all possible representations of a given random variable as the sum of independent random variables. This book contains material concerning the applicability of that theory to random variables with values in a locally compact Abelian group. The results on the arithmetic of probability distributions are then used to solve characteristic problems of mathematical statistics on Abelian groups. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
