Understanding how random variables transform under arithmetic operations is a foundational problem in probability theory.
Understanding how random variables transform under arithmetic operations is a foundational problem in probability theory.
Of particular interest is the difference operation, where for two independent random variables X and Y, the distribution of
Z = X – Y can be studied.
The investigations of this paper are limited to the requirement that Z follows a known, named univariate distribution.
