On the generalized lognormal distribution (Q361595)

Summary: This paper introduces, investigates, and discusses the \(\gamma\)-order generalized lognormal distribution (\(\gamma\)-GLD). Under certain values of the extra shape parameter \(\gamma\), the usual lognormal, log-Laplace, and log-uniform distribution, are obtained, as well as a degenerate Dirac distribution. The shape of all the members of the \(\gamma\)-GLD family is extensively discussed. The cumulative distribution function is evaluated through the generalized error function, while series expansion forms are derived. Moreover, the moments for the \(\gamma\)-GLD are also studied.
