Elementary theory of the Pareto distribution #
This file completes the elementary API for Mathlib's Pareto measure. For positive threshold
t and shape r, it proves the exact real-power moment criterion and formula, then derives the
mean, variance, and the matching non-integrability statements at the sharp thresholds. It also
computes the cdf and the exact domain of exponential integrability.
The common calculation is
∫ x, x ^ q ∂paretoMeasure t r = r * t ^ q / (r - q) for q < r.
Here ^ on a real exponent is Real.rpow. The density is supported on [t, ∞), where all
bases are positive, so Mathlib's improper-integral criterion for real powers applies directly.
