Largest component of a Poisson-Dirichlet partition
ID: largest-component-of-a-poisson-dirichlet-partition
For , at most one component exceeds , so . Below one half several components can exceed the threshold. Put and use the finite identity , with the factorial moment densities of Poisson-Dirichlet components. It gives the full probability distribution as finite inclusion-exclusion over , . In contrast, a size-biased component is beta-distributed.
