A compendium of variance functions for real natural exponential families

Natural Exponential Families (NEF) belonging to the Grand-Babel class have variance functions (VF) of the form V$ sb{F}$(m) = P(m)$ Delta(m)$ + Q(m)$ sqrt{ Delta(m)},$ with P,Q and $ Delta$ polynomials with deg P $ geq$ 3, deg Q $ geq$ 2 and deg $ Delta$ $ geq$ 2. Although the members of this class...
