1: 24.18 Physical Applications
Bernoulli polynomials appear in statistical physics (Ordóñez and Driebe (1996)), in discussions of Casimir forces (Li et al. (1991)), and in a study of quark-gluon plasma (Meisinger et al. (2002)). Euler polynomials also appear in statistical physics as well as in semi-classical approximations to quantum probability distributions (Ballentine and McRae (1998)).
2: 19.31 Probability Distributions
§19.31 Probability Distributions
R G ( x , y , z ) and R F ( x , y , z ) occur as the expectation values, relative to a normal probability distribution in 2 or 3 , of the square root or reciprocal square root of a quadratic form. …
3: 35.9 Applications
In multivariate statistical analysis based on the multivariate normal distribution, the probability density functions of many random matrices are expressible in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions of matrix argument F q p , with p 2 and q 1 . … In the nascent area of applications of zonal polynomials to the limiting probability distributions of symmetric random matrices, one of the most comprehensive accounts is Rains (1998).

  • 5: 8.23 Statistical Applications
    The functions P ( a , x ) and Q ( a , x ) are used extensively in statistics as the probability integrals of the gamma distribution; see Johnson et al. (1994, pp. 337–414). …
    6: 3.5 Quadrature
    In more advanced methods points are sampled from a probability distribution, so that they are concentrated in regions that make the largest contribution to the integral. …
    7: 7.20 Mathematical Applications
    For applications in statistics and probability theory, also for the role of the normal distribution functions (the error functions and probability integrals) in the asymptotics of arbitrary probability density functions, see Johnson et al. (1994, Chapter 13) and Patel and Read (1982, Chapters 2 and 3).
