Abstract
ABSTRACTAn interesting class of continuous distributions, called Cauchy-type mixture, with potential applications in modelling erratic phenomena is introduced by Soltani and Tafakori [A class of continuous kernels and Cauchy type heavy tail distributions. Statist Probab Lett. 2013;83:1018–1027]. In this work, we provide more insights into the Cauchy-type mixture distributions, involving certain characterizations, connections with the generalized Linnik distributions and the class of discrete distributions induced by stable laws. We also prove that the Laplace transform of Cauchy-type mixture distributions when normalized by constant terms become as a density functions in terms of distributional conjugate property.
