Abstract :
We present two new methods for obtaining densities. The first method is based on an operator equation that relates any two functions by an operator transformation. The method generalizes the classical results of Gram-Charlier/Edgeworth. The approach clarifies the kernel method presented by the author in 1966. In addition, we present a new method for obtaining joint densities for arbitrary variables. The method is based on the generalization of the characteristic function wherein we replace the exponentials by an arbitrary complete set of functions
