bgev.support: Support of the bimodal GEV distribution

In bgev: Bimodal GEV Distribution with Location Parameter

Support of the bimodal GEV distribution

Description

When the shape parameter xi is different from zero, the support is truncated either at the left or at the right side of the real. Considering the support is particularly useful to estimating momoments and to compute the likelihood function.

Usage

bgev.support(mu, sigma, xi, delta)

Arguments

mu	location parameter
sigma	shape parameter
xi	shape parameter
delta	bimodality parameter

Value

It returns a vector representing the interval for which the density function is not null.

Note

The Support of the bimodal GEV distribution is given by the following equation:

\begin{cases} x \in \mathbb {R} : x \geq \mathbf{sng} \left(-\frac{\sigma}{\xi}\right) | \frac{\sigma}{\xi}| ^{\frac{1}{\delta+1}}+\mu, & \xi \neq 0 \\ x \in \mathbb {R}, & \xi =0. \end{cases}
