Cauchy distribution conjecture for weighted ratios of correlated normals
Cauchy distribution conjecture for weighted ratios of correlated normals
Let and be independent random vectors with the same distribution , where has positive diagonal entries. Let be nonnegative numbers satisfying
Cauchy ratio conjecture. The random variable
has the standard Cauchy distribution. This is presented as an equivalent formulation of the monomial conjecture. The paper notes that an induction argument involving ratios of normal variables with nonzero means was considered but not successfully carried out.
