Let $x_1 < x_2 M \cdots < x_n$ and $y_1 < y_2 < \cdot < y_m$ be the ordered results of two random samples from populations having continuous cumulative distribution ...

A re-expression of the usual representation of the multinomial distribution as the conditional distribution of independent Poisson random variables given fixed sum provides a convenient new way to ...
