Convolution of a symmetric log-concave distribution and a symmetric bimodal distribution can have any number of modes

Charles Arnal

Résumé

In this note, we show that the convolution of a discrete symmetric log-concave distribution and a discrete symmetric bimodal distribution can have any strictly positive number of modes. A similar result is proved for smooth distributions, which contradicts the main statement in Hou et al. (2017).
