WEBThe cumulants are defined as the coefficients κr,s,κr,s,t,... in the Taylor expansion logM(ξ) = ξrκr + 1 2!ξrξsκ r,s + 1 3!ξrξsξtκ r,s,t +···. This notation does not distinguish first-order moments from first-order cu-mulants, but commas separating the superscripts serve to distinguish higher-order cumulants from moments.
