In probability theory, a log-normal (or lognormal) distribution is a continuous probability distribution of a random variable whose logarithm is normally distributed.Thus, if the random variable X is log-normally distributed, then Y = ln(X) has a normal distribution.

This comes as a superior alternative to using the Normal distribution to model asset returns. An R package, JSUparameters , was developed in 2021 to aid in the estimation of the parameters of the best-fitting Johnson's S U {\displaystyle S_{U}} -distribution for a given dataset.
Cumulative distribution function for the exponential distribution Cumulative distribution function for the normal distribution. In probability theory and statistics, the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a real-valued random variable, or just distribution function of , evaluated at , is the probability that will take a value less than or equal to .

In probability theory, a logit-normal distribution is a probability distribution of a random variable whose logit has a normal distribution.If Y is a random variable with a normal distribution, and t is the standard logistic function, then X = t(Y) has a logit-normal distribution; likewise, if X is logit-normally distributed, then Y = logit(X)= log (X/(1-X)) is normally distributed.
the log-normal distribution, and; the F-distribution. Note that the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of all log-concave distributions is also log-concave. However, some non-log-concave distributions also have log-concave CDF's: the log-normal distribution, the Pareto distribution, the Weibull distribution when the shape parameter < 1, and
In probability and statistics, the logarithmic distribution (also known as the logarithmic series distribution or the log-series distribution) is a discrete probability distribution derived from the Maclaurin series expansion
