On some generalized ageing orderings [PDF]

, 2014
Some partial orderings which compare probability distributions with the expo- nential distribution, are found to be very useful to understand the phenomenon of ageing.

Bidimensional Inequalities with an Ordinal Variable [PDF]

We investigate the normative foundations of two empirically implementable dominance criteria for comparing distributions of two attributes, where the first one is cardinal while the second is ordinal. The criteria we consider are Atkinson and Bourguignon\

Revisiting poverty and welfare dominance [PDF]

The paper reviews the theory of the measurement of poverty. The axiomatic theory is described and the axiomatic properties of poverty indexes are related to assumptions on the functional form of the poverty index function.

On a vector-valued generalisation of viscosity solutions for general PDE systems

, 2018
We propose a theory of non-differentiable solutions which applies to fully nonlinear PDE systems and extends the theory of viscosity solutions of Crandall-Ishii-Lions to the vectorial case.

Risk and Inequality Perceptions [PDF]

We examine the relationship between risk analysis and inequality analysis, using a questionnaire-experimental approach .The experiments focus on the effect of income transformations on the perceived rankings of income distributions in either a risk or ...

Polarization: Robust Multidimensional Poverty Comparisons [PDF]

We investigate how to make poverty comparisons using multidimensional indicators of well-being, showing in particular how to check whether the comparisons are robust to aggregation procedures and to the choice of multidimensional poverty lines.

Probabilistic Analysis of Distributed Fractional-Order Stochastic Systems Driven by Fractional Brownian Motion: Existence, Uniqueness, and Transportation Inequalities

Symmetry
This paper investigates a class of distributed fractional-order stochastic differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motion with a Hurst parameter 1/2<H<1. By employing the Picard iteration method, we rigorously prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions with Lipschitz conditions.

Bounds for DNA codes with constant GC-content

, 2003
We derive theoretical upper and lower bounds on the maximum size of DNA codes of length n with constant GC-content w and minimum Hamming distance d, both with and without the additional constraint that the minimum Hamming distance between any codeword ...

Fractional Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer-Type Inequalities for Interval-Valued Convex Stochastic Processes with Center-Radius Order and Their Related Applications in Entropy and Information Theory

Fractal and Fractional
We propose a new definition of the γ-convex stochastic processes (CSP) using center and radius (CR) order with the notion of interval valued functions (C.RI.V). By utilizing this definition and Mean-Square Fractional Integrals, we generalize fractional Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer-type inclusions for generalized C.RI.V versions of convex, tgs-convex, P ...

A Random Attention Model

, 2019
This paper illustrates how one can deduce preference from observed choices when attention is not only limited but also random. In contrast to earlier approaches, we introduce a Random Attention Model (RAM) where we abstain from any particular attention ...
