Discrete Random Variables Over Domains
"... Abstract. In this paper we explore discrete random variables over domains. We show that these lead to a continuous endofunctor on the categories RB (domains that are retracts of bifinite domains), and FS (domains where the identity map is the directed supremum of deflations finitely separated from t ..."

We give optimal algorithms for generating discrete random variables for changing distributions. We discuss two models of how distributions may change. In both models, we obtain a solution with constant update time, constant expected generate time, and linear space.

"... We generalize the DEnv (Distribution envelope determination) method for bounding the result of arithmetic operations on random variables with unknown dependence to higher-dimensional settings. In order to minimize both the influence of the coordinate frame and information loss we suggest a nested ..."

Extremal Limit Laws for Discrete Random Variables
"... If X1,X2,...,Xn are independent and identically distributed discrete random variables and Mn = max(X1,...,Xn) we examine the limiting behavior of (Mn − b(n))/a(n) as n→∞. It is well known that for discrete distributions such as Poisson and geometric the limiting distribution is not non-degenerate. H ..."
