Spherically Symmetric Logistic Distribution

Nikolai A. Volodin

Journal of Multivariate Analysis, 1999, vol. 70, issue 2, 202-206

Abstract: In this paper exact formulae of the probability density function for the spherically symmetric distribution with marginal logistic are given. They are entirely different for odd and even dimensions. For an odd number of dimensions it is possible to express them by elementary functions but for an even number of dimensions, it is possible only by an infinite series of functions. These series, however, are very convenient for computations and could be useful in practice.
