In this work we discuss two urn models with general weight sequences $(A,B)$ associated to them, $A=(\alpha_n)_{n\in\N}$ and $B=(\beta_m)_{m\in\N}$, generalizing two well known P\'olya-Eggenberger urn models, namely the so-called sampling without replacement urn model and the OK Corral urn model. We derive simple explicit expressions for the distribution of the number of white balls, when all black have been drawn, and obtain as a byproduct the corresponding results for the P\'olya-Eggenberger…

These weighted lattice paths can be interpreted as probability distributions arising in the context of Polya-Eggenberger urn models, more precisely, the latticepaths are sample paths of the well known sampling without replacement urn.

Generalizing the classical Banach matchbox problem, we consider the process of removing two types of ‘items’ from a ‘pile’ with selection probabilities for the type of the next item to be removed
