    Anyone recognize this single parameter discrete probability distribution?

    In case anyone's interested, this distribution appears to be a special case of the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution with the non-Poisson parameter \nu = 2.

    Anyone recognize this single parameter discrete probability distribution?

    I also know that as L \rightarrow \infty: \gamma_{1} \rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{1}{2*\sqrt{K}} and \gamma_{2} \rightarrow \gamma_{1}^{2} and E(k) appears to approach something approximated by: \sqrt{L - \frac{\sqrt{L}}{2}} But regardless, I still would like an exact closed-form...

    Anyone recognize this single parameter discrete probability distribution?

    I have a single parameter discrete probability distribution defined over the domain of non-negative integers with pmf in k of: Pr(k;L) = \frac{L^{k}}{k! * k! * I_{0}(2*\sqrt{L})} Where I_{0}() is the modified Bessel function of the first kind with order 0. I do know that E(k^{2}) = L...

    Help with infinite series sum{i=0=>inf} (x^i / (i)^2)

    Muchos gracias, amigo. That helps a lot. :) Although now that I think about I should have been able to intuit that one on my own. I'm just getting old I guess. :(

    Help with infinite series sum{i=0=>inf} (x^i / (i)^2)

    Hi all, I've been messing around with the product of Poisson distributions and was hoping someone could help me work out a closed form solution for the following convergent infinite series (given x > 0): \sum^{\infty}_{i=0} \frac{x^{i}}{i! \times i!} Many thanks in advance, Jacob.
