Dec 13, 2013 · A clever solution to find the expected value of a geometric r.v. is those employed in this video lecture of the MITx course "Introduction to Probability: Part 1 - The Fundamentals" (by the way, an extremely enjoyable course) and based on (a) the memoryless property of the geometric r.v. and (b) the total expectation theorem.

In both geometric and exponential growth we find multiplication by a fixed factor. The distinction lies in that 'exponential growth' is typically used to describe continuous time growth (steps of infinitesimal time) whilst geometric growth is used to describe discrete time growth (steps of …

Apr 17, 2022 · Regrettably, there are two distributions that are called geometric [1], the classical one, taking values in $1,2,\ldots$ and the shifted variant that takes values in $0,1,2,\ldots$.

Dec 11, 2014 · Suppose we have a matrix like $\begin{pmatrix}5&0\\0&5 \end{pmatrix}$ and $\begin{pmatrix}5&1\\0&5 \end{pmatrix}$. Is there any simple way to find the geometric multiplicities of each? An explanation that helps me extend to more complicated matrices will be greatly appreciated.

A geometric random variable X has the memoryless property if for all nonnegative integers s and t , the ...

A good anotated list of textbooks on geometric measure theory can be found in this blog post. Besides comments on Federer and Mattila it has several more examples. As my personal favorite I found, while lecturing geometric measure theory, "Measure Theory and Fine Properties of Functions" by Evans and Gariepy.
