Partial stochastic dominance for the multivariate Gaussian distribution [PDF]
Gaussian comparison inequalities provide a way of bounding probabilities relating to multivariate Gaussian random vectors in terms of probabilities of random variables with simpler correlation structures.

Leibniz seminorms in probability spaces [PDF]
In this paper we study the (strong) Leibniz property of centered moments of bounded random variables. We shall answer a question raised by M.

Antisymmetry of the Stochastical Order on all Ordered Topological Spaces
In this short note, we prove that the stochastic order of Radon probability measures on any ordered topological space is antisymmetric. This has been known before in various special cases. We give a simple and elementary proof of the general result.

Bounds for distribution functions of sums of squares and radial errors
Bounds are found for the distribution function of the sum of squares X2 + Y2 where X and Y are arbitrary continuous random variables. The techniques employed, which utilize copulas and their properties, show that the bounds are pointwise best‐possible when X and Y are symmetric about 0 and yield expressions which can be evaluated explicitly when X and ...

VaR bounds in models with partial dependence information on subgroups
We derive improved estimates for the model risk of risk portfolios when additional to the marginals some partial dependence information is available.We consider models which are split into k subgroups and consider various classes of dependence ...

Inequalities for Walsh like random variables
Let be a sequence of mean zero independent random variables. Let , and let [Yk] be the linear span of Yk. Assume δ ≤ |Xn| ≤ K for some δ > 0 and K > 0 and let for 1 < p < ∞. We show that for f ∈ [Ym] the following inequalities hold: and ‖f‖2 ≤ C(4,m)2‖f‖1 ≤ C(4,m)2‖f‖2. These generalize various well known inequalities on Walsh functions.

Risk bounds with additional information on functionals of the risk vector
We consider the problem of determining risk bounds for the Value at Risk for risk vectors X where besides the marginal distributions also information on the distribution or on the expectation of some functionals Tj(X), 1 ≤ j ≤ m, is available.

Extremal Lipschitz functions in the deviation inequalities from the mean
We obtain an optimal deviation from the mean upper bound \begin{equation} D(x)\=\sup_{f\in \F}\mu\{f-\E_{\mu} f\geq x\},\qquad\ \text{for}\ x\in\R\label{abstr} \end{equation} where $\F$ is the class of the integrable, Lipschitz functions on probability ...

Using sums-of-squares to prove Gaussian product inequalities
The long-standing Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture states that E[∏j=1n∣Xj∣yj]≥∏j=1nE[∣Xj∣yj]E\left[{\prod }_{j=1}^{n}{| {X}_{j}| }^{{y}_{j}}]\ge {\prod }_{j=1}^{n}E\left[{| {X}_{j}| }^{{y}_{j}}] for any centered Gaussian random vector (X1 ...

Background — Anal sac impaction is common in dogs and manual expression may be effective, yet recurrence remains a problem. To facilitate physiological emptying of the sacs, it is important to maintain a bulky stool consistency. Objectives — The study evaluated if supplementation with ProGlan, a complementary feed containing Bacillus velezensis C‐3102 ...
