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.

Integrability transfer. A function is integrable against a Pareto law with nonnegative threshold and shape exactly when its density-weighted version is Lebesgue integrable.

Integral transfer. An integral against a Pareto law with nonnegative threshold and shape is the density-weighted Lebesgue integral.

A Pareto law is carried by the half-line [t, ∞) above its threshold.
