Muliere and Scarsini's bivariate Pareto distribution: sums, products, and ratios

We derive the exact distributions of R = X + Y, P = X Y and W = X/(X + Y) and the corresponding moment properties when X and Y follow Muliere and Scarsini's bivariate Pareto distribution. The expressions turn out to involve special functions. We also provide extensive tabulations of the percent...

Sumario:We derive the exact distributions of R = X + Y, P = X Y and W = X/(X + Y) and the corresponding moment properties when X and Y follow Muliere and Scarsini's bivariate Pareto distribution. The expressions turn out to involve special functions. We also provide extensive tabulations of the percentage points associated with the distributions. These tables -obtained using intensive computing power- will be of use to practitioners of the bivariate Pareto distribution.
