Analysis of Water Utilization Structure in Huizhou Based on Lorenz Curves and Gini Coefficients
Renmin Zhujiang, 2020 In order to understand the water utilization structure of water-rich areas in southern China, this paper analyzes the water utilization structure of counties (districts) in Huizhou from 2013 to 2017 by using Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient. The results

Inequality of Chances as a Symmetry Phase Transition
Entropy, 2013 We propose a model for Lorenz curves. It provides two-parameter fits to data on incomes, electric consumption, life expectation and rate of survival after cancer.

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines risk transmission and co‐movements between financial markets (G7 countries and China) and commodity markets (gold and oil) during the COVID‐19 crisis. Daily closing prices for major equity indices (CAC40, CSI300, DAX30, FTSE100, MIB, NIKKEI, TSX and S&P500) and futures prices for gold, brent and WTI were analysed using DCC ...

The Nadarajah-Haghighi Lindley distribution
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019 : We define a new lifetime model based on compounding the Lindley and Nadarajah-Haghighi distributions. The proposed distribution is very competitive to other lifetime models.

Social Welfare Analysis of Income Distributions: Ranking Income Distributions with Crossing Generalised Lorenz Curves [PDF]
This paper illustrates how Crossing Generalised Lorenz (GL) curves can be used to identify the best income distribution on social welfare grounds within a set of alternative income distributions generated by different policy options.

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of trade liberalisation on income inequality across 24 Sub‐Saharan African (SSA) countries from 2000 to 2020. Using IV‐Tobit and 2SLS models, we consistently find that greater trade openness significantly exacerbates inequality in the region. Critically, we document an inverted U‐shaped relationship between trade

The Exponentiated Lindley Geometric Distribution with Applications
Entropy, 2019 We introduce a new three-parameter lifetime distribution, the exponentiated Lindley geometric distribution, which exhibits increasing, decreasing, unimodal, and bathtub shaped hazard rates.

Using Lorenz curves to represent firm heterogeneity in Cournot games [PDF]
We derive several comparative-static results for Cournot games when firms have nonconstant marginal-cost curves which shift exogenously. The results permit us to rank certain vectors of equilibrium marginal costs with the same component sum according to ...

, 2017 Existing HIV care cascade metrics fail to capture whether viremia is equally distributed in a population or concentrated within groups. We applied the Lorenz curve, which has been used to describe disparities in the distribution of income and other resources, to the distribution of viremia in a safety-net HIV clinic in 2012.
