Contorted uniform and Pareto distributions

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1995, vol. 23, issue 2, 157-164

Abstract: Random variables having the multiplicative almost-lack-of-memory property are introduced. An explicit representation of distributions having this property is derived and some of their properties are studied. These distributions appear to be extensions of the uniform and Pareto distributions.
