On the Pareto Type III distribution
This note analyzes the distributional properties of Pareto Type III random variables. The orignal two parameters distribution proposed by Pareto is expanded in a three parameters version and both its density and characteristic function are derived. The analytic expression of the inverse distribution function is also obtained, together with a simple series expansion of its moments of any order. Finally, we propose a simple statistical exercise designed to show the increased reliability of the Pareto Type III distribution in describing asymptotically dumped power-like behaviors.
