Chapter 5: Problem 19
. For \(\alpha>0\) and \(\beta>0\), consider the following accept/reject algorithm: (1) Generate \(U_{1}\) and \(U_{2}\) iid uniform \((0,1)\) random variables. Set \(V_{1}=U_{1}^{1 / \mathrm{a}}\) and \(V_{2}=U_{2}^{1 / \beta}\) (2) Set \(W=V_{1}+V_{2}\). If \(W \leq 1\), set \(X=V_{1} / W\), else go to Step (1). (3) Deliver \(X\).
