The Gini coefficient as a useful measure of malaria inequality among populations
Background Understanding inequality in infectious disease burden requires clear and unbiased indicators. The Gini coefficient, conventionally used as a macroeconomic descriptor of inequality, is potentially useful to quantify epidemiological ...

Turán Inequalities for Three Term Recurrences with Monotonic Coefficients [PDF]
We establish some new Tur\'an's type inequalities for orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence with monotonic coefficients. As a corollary we deduce asymptotic bounds on the extreme zeros of orthogonal polynomials with polynomially growing coefficients of the three-term recurrence.

Nonstrict inequality for Schmidt coefficients of three-qubit states [PDF]
Generalized Schmidt decomposition of pure three-qubit states has four positive and one complex coefficients. In contrast to the bipartite case, they are not arbitrary and the largest Schmidt coefficient restricts severely other coefficients.

Measuring Resource Inequality: The Gini Coefficient
This paper stems from work done by the authors at the Mathematics for Social Justice Workshop held in June of 2007 at Middlebury College. We provide a description of the Gini coefficient and some discussion of how it can be used to promote quantitative ...

Stapledon Decompositions and Inequalities for Coefficients of Chromatic Polynomials [PDF]
We use a polynomial decomposition result by Stapledon to show that the numerator polynomial of the Ehrhart series of an open polytope is the difference of two symmetric polynomials with nonnegative integer coefficients. We obtain a related decomposition for order polytopes and for the numerator polynomial of the corresponding series for chromatic ...

Inequality Measures: The Kolkata Index in Comparison With Other Measures [PDF]
We provide a survey of the Kolkata index of social inequality, focusing in particular on income inequality. Based on the observation that inequality functions (such as the Lorenz function), giving the measures of income or wealth against that of the ...

Markov Inequalities for Polynomials with Restricted Coefficients
Essentially sharp Markov-type inequalities are known for various classes of polynomials with constraints including constraints of the coefficients of the polynomials. For ℕ and δ>0 we introduce the class ℱn,δ as the collection of all polynomials of the form P(x)=∑k=hnakxk, ak∈ℤ, |ak|≤n ...

Norm Inequalities for the Fourier Coefficients of Some Almost Periodic Functions [PDF]
Using C. Fefferman's embedding of a charge space in a measure space allows us to apply standard interpolation theorems to prove norm inequalities for Besicovitch almost periodic functions. This yields an analogue of Paley's Inequality for the Fourier coefficients of periodic functions.

Horn inequalities for nonzero Kronecker coefficients [PDF]
The Kronecker coefficients and the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients are nonnegative integers depending on three partitions. By definition, these coefficients are the multiplicities of the tensor product decomposition of two irreducible representations of symmetric groups (resp. linear groups).

Generalized Hilbert coefficients and Northcott's inequality
Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$ with infinite residue field. Let $I$ be an $R$-ideal that has analytic spread $\ell(I)=d$, $G_d$ condition and the Artin-Nagata property $AN^-_{d-2}$. We provide a formula relating the length $ (I^{n+1}/JI^{n})$ to the difference $P_I(n)-H_I(n)$, where $J$ is a general minimal reduction of $I ...
