In this article, we introduce and study a new stochastic order of multivariate distributions, namely, the conditional likelihood ratio order. The proposed order and other stochastic orders are analyzed in the case of a bivariate exponential distributions

Stochastic Comparisons of Weighted Distributions and Their Mixtures
In this paper, various stochastic ordering properties of a parametric family of weighted distributions and the associated mixture model are developed. The effect of stochastic variation of the output random variable with respect to the parameter and/or ...

The Marshall-Olkin Odd Burr III-G Family: Theory, Estimation, and Engineering Applications
We propose a new flexible class called the Marshall-Olkin odd Burr III family for generating continuous distributions and derive some of its statistical properties.

Ohlin and Levin–Stečkin-Type Results for Strongly Convex Functions
Counterparts of the Ohlin and Levin–Stečkin theorems for strongly convex functions are proved. An application of these results to obtain some known inequalities related with strongly convex functions in an alternative and unified way is presented.

In this paper, we suggest a brand new extension of the inverse Lomax distribution for fitting engineering time data. The newly developed distribution, termed the transmuted Topp–Leone inverse Lomax (TTLILo) distribution, is characterized by an additional

Reversing conditional orderings [PDF]
We analyze some specific aspects concerning conditional orderings and relations among them. To this purpose we define a suitable concept of reversed conditional ordering and prove some related results.

Assessing non-convex value functions for the optimal control of stochastic differential equations
Solving the optimal control of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) using the dynamic programming method requires writing the problem in terms of the so-called value function. This paper presents conditions to assure that the value function is convex

On capital allocation for stochastic arrangement increasing actuarial risks
This paper studies the increasing convex ordering of the optimal discounted capital allocations for stochastic arrangement increasing risks with stochastic arrangement decreasing occurrence times. The application to optimal allocation of policy limits is

Multiperiod ordering model with put option contracts under inflation [PDF]
This paper considers the rising price and the shrinking demand caused by the inflation. To manage these above risks, the firm has a chance to place two types of orders in each period, viz., the firm order and the put options order.

Stochastic orderings induced by star-shaped functions
The non-decreasing functions whicl are star-shaped and supported above at each point of a non-empty closed proper subset of the real line induce an ordering, on the class of distribution functions with finite first moments, that is strictly weaker than ...
