Dear All:
 
Does anybody know anything about the distribution and distributional properties of the difference of two lognormally distributed random variables? By simulation, I found that it is maybe some of Levi's stable distributions. Maybe. Is there any way to validate such an assumption? Any ideas, references are highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
