On geometric distributions of order (k1,...,km)

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1990, vol. 9, issue 2, 163-171

Abstract: This paper considers an extension of the geometric distribution of order k with parameter p, introduced by Philippou (1983), to the geometric distribution of order (k1,...,km) with parameter (p1,...,pm). The exact distributions and the probability generating functions are derived for some special cases of (k1,...,km).
