Abstract

Abstract Let X 1, …, X n be jointly distributed random variates. The quantity log Σexp{X i } is called the “power sum” of the variates X 1, …, X n . Previous articles [1, 4] find the moment generating function, expectation, and variance of the power sum of two normally distributed X i 's. We generalize these results to the case of n jointly distributed variates.
