  3. Law of the unconscious statistician - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_the_unconscious...

    The naming is sometimes attributed to Sheldon Ross' textbook Introduction to Probability Models, although he removed the reference in later editions. [2] Many statistics textbooks do present the result as the definition of expected value. [3]

  4. Ross's conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross's_conjecture

    Ross's conjecture is a bound for the mean delay in a queue where arrivals are governed by a doubly stochastic Poisson process [3] or by a non-stationary Poisson process. [1] [4] The conjecture states that the average amount of time that a customer spends waiting in a queue is greater than or equal to

  7. Ross–Littlewood paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross–Littlewood_paradox

    A graph that shows the number of balls in and out of the vase for the first ten iterations of the problem. The Ross–Littlewood paradox (also known as the balls and vase problem or the ping pong ball problem) is a hypothetical problem in abstract mathematics and logic designed to illustrate the paradoxical, or at least non-intuitive, nature of infinity.

  8. Probability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_theory

    Probability theory or probability calculus is the branch of mathematics concerned with probability.Although there are several different probability interpretations, probability theory treats the concept in a rigorous mathematical manner by expressing it through a set of axioms.

  9. Chapman–Kolmogorov equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapman–Kolmogorov_equation

    In mathematics, specifically in the theory of Markovian stochastic processes in probability theory, the Chapman–Kolmogorov equation (CKE) is an identity relating the joint probability distributions of different sets of coordinates on a stochastic process.
