Classes of Ordinary Differential Equations Obtained for the Probability Functions of Half-Normal Distribution
In this paper, the differential calculus was used
to obtain some classes of ordinary differential equations (ODE)
for the probability density function (PDF), quantile function,
survival function, inverse survival function, hazard function
and reversed hazard function of the half-normal distribution.
The stated necessary conditions required for the existence of
the ODEs are consistent with the various parameters that
defined the distribution. Higher orders ODEs for the PDF
yielded different number of ODEs which increases as the order
increases
