Keywords: Birnbaum-Saunders distribution
Abstract:

For positive random variables, the population geometric mean can be defined by means of a simple formula. In the present article, the definition of the population geometric mean is introduced. Based on this definition, the population geometric means for Gamma, Weibull, exponential, uniform, inverse Gaussian, Schr\"{o}ndinger, Pareto, lognormal, Birnbaum--Saunders, and K distributions are described.
