 Mathematics , 2009, Abstract: The two parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution $PD(\alpha,\theta)$ is the distribution of an infinite dimensional random discrete probability. It is a generalization of Kingman's Poisson-Dirichlet distribution. The two parameter Dirichlet process $\Pi_{\alpha,\theta,\nu_0}$ is the law of a pure atomic random measure with masses following the two parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution. In this article we focus on the construction and the properties of the infinite dimensional symmetric diffusion processes with respective symmetric measures $PD(\alpha,\theta)$ and $\Pi_{\alpha,\theta,\nu_0}$. The methods used come from the theory of Dirichlet forms.

 Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: Let $X$, $B$ and $Y$ be three Dirichlet, Bernoulli and beta independent random variables such that $X\sim \mathcal{D}(a_0,...,a_d),$ such that $\Pr(B=(0,...,0,1,0,...,0))=a_i/a$ with $a=\sum_{i=0}^da_i$ and such that $Y\sim \beta(1,a).$ We prove that $X\sim X(1-Y)+BY.$ This gives the stationary distribution of a simple Markov chain on a tetrahedron. We also extend this result to the case when $B$ follows a quasi Bernoulli distribution $\mathcal{B}_k(a_0,...,a_d)$ on the tetrahedron and when $Y\sim \beta(k,a)$. We extend it even more generally to the case where $X$ is a Dirichlet process and $B$ is a quasi Bernoulli random probability. Finally the case where the integer $k$ is replaced by a positive number $c$ is considered when $a_0=...=a_d=1.$ \textsc{Keywords} \textit{Perpetuities, Dirichlet process, Ewens distribution, quasi Bernoulli laws, probabilities on a tetrahedron, $T_c$ transform, stationary distribution.} AMS classification 60J05, 60E99.
 Yashwant Singh Mathematics , 2008, Abstract: In the present paper a generalization of Gurland distribution [3] is obtained as a beta mixture of the generalized Poisson distribution (GPD) of Consul and Jain [2]. The first two moments of the distribution and a recurrence relation among probabilities are obtained. The present distribution is supposed to be more general in nature and wider in scope.
 Richard Herrmann Statistics , 2015, Abstract: A generalization of the Poisson distribution based on the generalized Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\alpha, \beta}(\lambda)$ is proposed and the raw moments are calculated algebraically in terms of Bell polynomials. It is demonstrated, that the proposed distribution function contains the standard fractional Poisson distribution as a subset. A possible interpretation of the additional parameter $\beta$ is suggested.
 Per-Erik Hagmark Open Journal of Statistics (OJS) , 2012, DOI: 10.4236/ojs.2012.23039 Abstract: A new two-parameter count distribution is derived starting with probabilistic arguments around the gamma function and the digamma function. This model is a generalization of the Poisson model with a noteworthy assortment of qualities. For example, the mean is the main model parameter; any possible non-trivial variance or zero probability can be attained by changing the other model parameter; and all distributions are visually natural-shaped. Thus, exact modeling to any degree of over/under-dispersion or zero-inflation/deflation is possible.
 Mathematics , 2012, Abstract: We generalize Dirichlet's $S$-unit theorem from the usual group of $S$-units of a number field $K$ to the infinite rank group of all algebraic numbers having nontrivial valuations only on places lying over $S$. Specifically, we demonstrate that the group of algebraic $S$-units modulo torsion is a $\bQ$-vector space which, when normed by the Weil height, spans a hyperplane determined by the product formula, and that the elements of this vector space which are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$ retain their linear independence over $\mathbb{R}$.

 Statistics , 2015, DOI: 10.1109/TPAMI.2013.217 Abstract: Discrete random probability measures and the exchangeable random partitions they induce are key tools for addressing a variety of estimation and prediction problems in Bayesian inference. Indeed, many popular nonparametric priors, such as the Dirichlet and the Pitman-Yor process priors, select discrete probability distributions almost surely and, therefore, automatically induce exchangeable random partitions. Here we focus on the family of Gibbs-type priors, a recent and elegant generalization of the Dirichlet and the Pitman-Yor process priors. These random probability measures share properties that are appealing both from a theoretical and an applied point of view: (i) they admit an intuitive characterization in terms of their predictive structure justifying their use in terms of a precise assumption on the learning mechanism; (ii) they stand out in terms of mathematical tractability; (iii) they include several interesting special cases besides the Dirichlet and the Pitman-Yor processes. The goal of our paper is to provide a systematic and unified treatment of Gibbs-type priors and highlight their implications for Bayesian nonparametric inference. We will deal with their distributional properties, the resulting estimators, frequentist asymptotic validation and the construction of time-dependent versions. Applications, mainly concerning hierarchical mixture models and species sampling, will serve to convey the main ideas. The intuition inherent to this class of priors and the neat results that can be deduced for it lead one to wonder whether it actually represents the most natural generalization of the Dirichlet process.
