Hi everyone,
I am using the package cmprsk in R to estimate the cumulative incidence
function and its variance. In the manual it is mentioned that the variance
is calculated based on Dr. Aalen's paper (1978, Nonparametric estimation of
partial transition probabilities in multiple decrement models). 

I would appreciate if someone could provide me with a source where the
variance is expressed in a more readable way, for example as a sum. 

I appreciate your help. 
Thank you.
