| In [[probability]] and [[statistics]], the '''parabolic fractal distribution''' is a type of [[discrete probability distribution]] in which the logarithm of the frequency or size of entities in a population is a [[quadratic polynomial]] of the logarithm of the rank. This can markedly improve the fit over a simple power-law relationship (see references below).

| In a number of applications, there is a so-called [[King effect]] where the highest-ranked item has a significantly greater frequency or size than the model predicts on the basis of the other items.

| ==Definition==
| |
| The [[probability mass function]] is given, as a function of the rank ''n'', by
| |
| :<math> f(n;b,c) \propto n^{-b} \exp(-c(\log n)^2) ,</math>
| |
| where ''b'' and ''c'' are parameters of the distribution.
