KolmogorovDistribution distribution is the distribution of the KolmogorovDistribution–Smirnov statistic. The statistic is defined as the supremum of the absolute difference between the empirical and reference distributions. To compute the cdf of the KolmogorovDistribution distribution, we implement the algorithm published in

quantile
