A Hausdorff Measure Inequality [PDF]
Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1976 We prove that the Hausdorff ( m + k ) (m + k) -measure of a product set is no less than the product of the Hausdorff m-measure of the (measurable) first component set in R m {{\mathbf {R}}^m} and the ...

Nested Inequalities Among Divergence Measures [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper we have considered a single inequality having 11 known divergence measures. This inequality include measures like: Jeffryes-Kullback-Leiber J-divergence, Jensen-Shannon divergence (Burbea-Rao, 1982), arithmetic-geometric mean divergence ...

Sociological Methods & Research, 1982 Since unambiguous ranking of income distributions according to their degree of inequality is not always possible, choice of inequality measure must rest on the appropriateness of particular measures for particular substantive problems. This article provides a complete account of one measure of inequality, δ, defined, for x > 0, as the ratio of the ...
