For a good presentation try "The Algebra of Random Variables" M.D. Springer Of course it's out of print and I probably have the last private copy:) Publishers should really get with it and make out of print books available electronically. In any case , The PDF(a+b)=L^-L(F(a)*L(b)) LaPlace transforms The PDF(a*b)=M^-1(M(a)*M(b)) Mellin Transforms theoretically you can do any algebraic equation of pdf's. Springer also develops a more general method of analysis involving H-functions; I haven't gone there.
