It is well known that full knowledge of all conditional distributions will typically serve to completely characterize a bivariate distribution. Partial knowledge will often suffice. For example, knowledge of the conditional distribution of X given Y and the conditional mean of Y given X is often...

Distributions with normal conditionals have biquadratic regression functions. Consequently, in contrast to classical bivariate normal distributions, their densities can be multimodal. Criteria for determining the number of modes are discussed and illustrations of representative multimodal...

A k-dimensional density function is determined by certain combinations of marginal and conditional densities. The present paper identifies all possible such specifications. Gelman and Speed (1993) have treated the finite discrete case of this problem. The present paper extends their work to a...

Two classes of k-dimensional distributions with generalized Pareto conditionals are characterized. This subsumes and extends earlier work on distributions with Pareto conditionals.
