Which Inequality? The Inequality of Endowments versus the Inequality of Rewards [PDF]
We introduce a new distinction between inequality in initial endowments (e.g., ability, inherited wealth) and inequality of what one can obtain as rewards (e.g., prestigious positions, money). We show that, when society allocates resources via tournaments, these two types of inequality have opposing effects on equilibrium behavior and well-being ...

An inequality of Schur and an inequality of Newton [PDF]
2 (1.3) Er ? Er-iEr+1 and (1.4) 1r ? Hr-lHr+i. 1 The inequality (1.3) is known as Newton's inequality and is true when a1, a2, * * *, am are real numbers. The inequality (1.4), given by Professor Schur, is true when a1, a2, * * X am are nonnegative reals. In [1], Whiteley has given the following generalizations of (1.3) and (1.4): Let (1.5) El(K) = Xi1,

Various issues surrounding a recently proposed inequality among twist-two quark distributions in the nucleon are discussed. We provide a rigorous derivation of the inequality in QCD, including radiative corrections and scale dependence. We also give a more heuristic, but more physical derivation, from which we show that a similar inequality does not ...
