The Mathematical Statistics (MS) test paper comprises Mathematics (40% weightage) and Statistics (60%weightage).

Mathematics

Sequences and Series: Convergence of sequences of real numbers, Comparison, root and ratio tests for convergence of series of real numbers.

Differential Calculus: Limits, continuity, and differentiability of functions of one and two variables. Rolle’s theorem, mean value theorems, Taylor’s theorem, indeterminate forms, maxima and minima of functions of one and two variables.

Integral Calculus: Fundamental theorems of integral calculus. Double and triple integrals, applications of definite integrals, arc lengths, areas, and volumes.

Matrices: Rank, an inverse of a matrix. Systems of linear equations. Linear transformations, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Cayley-Hamilton theorem, symmetric, skew-symmetric and orthogonal matrices.

Statistics

Probability: Axiomatic definition of probability and properties, conditional probability, multiplication rule. A theorem of total probability. Bayes’ theorem and independence of events.

Random Variables: Probability mass function, probability density function, cumulative distribution functions, distribution of a function of a random variable. Mathematical expectation, moments, and moment generating function. Chebyshev’s inequality.

Standard Distributions: Binomial, negative binomial, geometric, Poisson, hypergeometric, uniform, exponential, gamma, beta, and normal distributions. Poisson and normal approximations of a binomial distribution.

Joint Distributions: Joint, marginal and conditional distributions. Distribution of functions of random variables. Joint moment generating function. Product moments, correlation, simple linear regression. Independence of random variables.

Sampling distributions: Chi-square, t and F distributions and their properties.
