21.2 Pareto type 2 distribution
21.2.1 Probability density function
If \(\mu \in \mathbb{R}\), \(\lambda \in \mathbb{R}^+\), and \(\alpha \in \mathbb{R}^+\), then for \(y \geq \mu\), \[ \mathrm{Pareto\_Type\_2}(y|\mu,\lambda,\alpha) = \ \frac{\alpha}{\lambda} \, \left( 1+\frac{y-\mu}{\lambda} \right)^{-(\alpha+1)} \! . \]
Note that the Lomax distribution is a Pareto Type 2 distribution with \(\mu=0\).
