Aug 7, 2015 at 15:36 comment added Arani @AlexandreEremenko Also, the text says that its density is $\frac{\alpha - 1}{\alpha + 1} \alpha^{-|k|}$. I am not sure how this follows from the above function.
Aug 7, 2015 at 15:30 comment added Arani @AlexandreEremenko How is this related to the standard geometric distribution? Could you refer me to some text on this subject? A simple internet search did not reveal much. Thanks a lot.
Aug 7, 2015 at 13:56 comment added kjetil b halvorsen @Alexandre Eremenko: On the integers, that is. As a density (on the reals) it is called the double exponential distribution.
Aug 7, 2015 at 13:45 comment added Alexandre Eremenko Probably this is the distribution with density $ce^{-k|x|}$.
