    "abstract": "We derive analytic expressions for infinite products of random 2x2 matrices.\nThe determinant of the target matrix is log-normally distributed, whereas the\nremainder is a surprisingly complicated function of a parameter characterizing\nthe norm of the matrix and a parameter characterizing its skewness. The\ndistribution may have importance as an uncommitted prior in statistical image\nanalysis.",
