In probability theory, Spitzer's formula or Spitzer's identity gives the joint distribution of partial sums and maximal partial sums of a collection of random variables. The result was first published by Frank Spitzer in 1956. The formula is regarded as "a stepping stone in the theory of sums of independent random variables". ==Statement of theorem== Let ''X''1, ''X''2, ... be independent and identically distributed random variables and define the partial sums ''S''''n'' = ''X''1 + ''X''2 + ... + ''X''''n''. Define ''R''''n'' = max(0,''S''1,''S''2,...,''S''''n''). Then〔 :: where :: and ''S''± denotes (|''S''| ± ''S'')/2. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spitzer's formula」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
