The Ordering of Shannon Entropies for the Multivariate Distributions and Distributions of Eigenvalues [PDF]
In this paper, we prove the Shannon entropy inequalities for the multivariate distributions via the notion of convex ordering of two multivariate distributions.

The Leader Property in Quasi Unidimensional Cases
The following problem was studied: let Zjj≥1 be a sequence of i.i.d. d-dimensional random vectors. Let F be their probability distribution and for every n≥1 consider the sample Sn={Z1,Z2,…,Zn}.

Multivariate NBU and NBUE Distributions [PDF]
Various definitions of multivariate new better than used (NBU) and new better than used in expectation (NBUE) life distributions are introduced and their interrelationship is studied. Examples are given to illustrate these concepts.

Theoretical Study of Some Angle Parameter Trigonometric Copulas
Copulas are important probabilistic tools to model and interpret the correlations of measures involved in real or experimental phenomena. The versatility of these phenomena implies the need for diverse copulas.

On the Probability of Finding Extremes in a Random Set
We consider a sequence Zjj≥1 of i.i.d. d-dimensional random vectors and for every n≥1 consider the sample Sn={Z1,Z2,…,Zn}. We say that Zj is a “leader” in the sample Sn if Zj≥Zk,∀k∈{1,2,…,n}and Zj is an “anti-leader” if Zj≤Zk,∀k∈{1,2,…,n}. After all, the

On a Multivariate Analog of the Zolotarev Problem
A generalized multivariate problem due to V. M. Zolotarev is considered. Some related results on geometric random sums and (multivariate) geometric stable distributions are extended to a more general case of “anisotropic” random summation where sums of ...
