2 I recently became interested in this definition in trying to make rigorous my answer to this Question. In the univariate case a notion of unimodal function is generalized from that of a unimodal distribution, …

Efficient algorithm to find maximum of a unimodal sequence Ask Question Asked 14 years, 1 month ago Modified 8 years, 5 months ago

I believe that if the independent random variables have identical unimodal distributions that are symmetrical about the mode, the sum will have unimodal distribution that is symmetric about the …

Added: One of our own users, Henry, has written a detailed article on the relationship between the mean, median, mode, and standard deviation in a unimodal distribution. It's definitely worth a look.

Unimodality of q-binomial coefficients is a difficult theorem, proved more than 20 years after it was conjectured. If you're really interested in a proof — it's easy to google references.

What's the name for this unimodal sequence? Ask Question Asked 12 years, 2 months ago Modified 12 years, 2 months ago

Is this histogram bimodal? Because when I google what a bimodal histogram looks like, I keep getting images that say histograms like these are considered bimodal. Isn't it unimodal because the high...

The sole restriction on the distribution is that it be unimodal and have finite variance. (This implies that it is a continuous probability distribution except at the mode, which may have a non-zero probability.) …

My question is learned from here. Let me restate it as follows: A unimodular matrix $M$ is a square integer matrix having determinant $+1$ or $−1$. A totally ...

Mar 19, 2025 · It is known that the Stirling numbers of the first kind $ {n\brack k}$ and second kind $ {n\brace k}$ are unimodal. Is it known at which $k$'s the maximum occurs?
