Distribution

Distribution may refer to:

== Mathematics == Distribution (mathematical analysis), generalized function used to formulate solutions of partial differential equations Distribution (number theory), its algebraic analogue Distribution (differential geometry), a subset of the tangent bundle of a manifold Probability distribution, the probability of a particular value or value range of a variable Cumulative distribution function, in which the probability of being no greater than a particular value is a function of that value Frequency distribution, a list of the values recorded in a sample Inner distribution, and outer distribution, in coding theory Distributed parameter system, systems that have an infinite-dimensional state-space Distribution of terms, a situation in which all members of a category are accounted for Distributivity, a property of binary operations that generalises the distributive law from elementary algebra Distribution problems, a common type of problems in combinatorics where the goal is to enumerate the number of possible distributions of objects to recipients, subject to various conditions; see Twelvefold way
