Line 13: If ''X'' is a [[vector space\|vector]]-valued random variable, one takes the argument ''t'' to be a vector and ''tX'' to be a [[dot product]]. A characteristic function exists for any random variable. More than that, there is a bijection between cumulative probability functions and characteristic functions. In other words, two probability ~~distributtions~~distributions never share the same characteristic function. Given a characteristic function φ, it is possible to reconstruct the corresponding cumulative probability distribution function ''F'':
