Relationships among probability distributions

In probability theory and statistics, there are several relationships among probability distributions. These relations can be categorized in the following groups: One distribution is a special case of another with a broader parameter space Transforms (function of a random variable); Combinations (function of several variables); Approximation (limit) relationships; Compound relationships (useful for Bayesian inference); Duality; Conjugate priors.
