Abstract:
Relevant integral stochastic orders share a common mathematical model, they are defined by generators which are made up of increasing functions on appropriate directions. Motivated by the aim to provide a unified study of those orders, we introduce a new class of integral stochastic orders whose generators are composed of functions that are increasing on the directions of a finite number of vectors. These orders will be called directional stochastic orders. Such stochastic orders are studied in depth. In that analysis, the conical combinations of vectors in those finite subsets play a relevant role. It is proved that directional stochastic orders are generated by non-stochastic pre-orders and the class of their preserving mappings. Geometrical characterizations of directional stochastic orders are developed. Those characterizations depend on the existence of non-trivial subspaces contained in the set of conical combinations. An application of directional stochastic orders to the field of financial mathematics is developed, namely, to the comparison of investments with random cash flows.

Abstract:
In this paper we analyze cooperative games where the worth of a coalition is uncertain and the players only know their probability distribution. The novelty of our analysis is that the comparison among the uncertain values is done by stochastic orders among random variables. Thus, the classical concepts in cooperative game theory have to be revisited and redefined. This form of comparison leads to two-different notions of core. Conditions are given under which these cores are nonempty. The results are applied on three families of stochastic games.

Abstract:
Recently s-FR and s-ST orderings have been defined in the literature. They are more general in the sense that most of the earlier known partial orderings reduce as particular cases of these orderings. Moreover, these orderings have helped in defining new and useful ageing criterion. In this paper, using Laplace transform, we characterize, by means of necessary and sufficient conditions. the property that two life distributions are ordered in the s-FR and s-ST sense. The characterization of LR, FR, MR, VR, STand HAMR orderings follow as particular cases.

Stochastic comparisons of lifetime characteristics of reliability systems and their components are of common use in lifetime analysis.

Our results happen to enfold several previous findings in this connection. We shall also show that several stochastic orders and ageing characteristics, such as IHRA, DHRA, NBU, and NWU, are inherited by transformation to Harris family. Finally, some refinements are made concerning related existing results in the literature.

We investigate the algebraic structure underlying the stochastic Taylor solution expansion for stochastic differential systems. Our motivation is to construct efficient integrators. These are approximations that generate strong numerical integration schemes that are more accurate than the corresponding stochastic Taylor approximation, independent of the governing vector fields and to all orders. The sinhlog integrator introduced by Malham & Wiese (2009) is one example. Herein, we show that the natural context to study stochastic integrators and their properties is the convolution shuffle algebra of endomorphisms; establish a new whole class of efficient integrators; and then prove that, within this class, the sinhlog integrator generates the optimal efficient stochastic integrator at all orders.

The bivariate characterization of stochastic ordering relations given by Shanthikumar and Yao (1991) is based on collections of bivariate functions g(x, y), where g(x, y) and g(y, x) satisfy certain properties. We give an alternate characterization based on collections of pairs of bivariate functions, g1(x, y) and g2(x, y), satisfying certain properties. This characterization allows us to extend results for single machine scheduling of jobs that are identical except for their processing times, to jobs that may have different costs associated with them.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study likelihood ratio order for mixture and its components via their Glaser’s functions for weighted distributions. So, some theoretical examples using exponential family and their mixtures are presented. Design/methodology/approach First, Glaser’s functions of mixture and its components for weighted distributions in different scenarios are computed. Then by them the likelihood ratio order is investigated between mixture and its components. Findings The authors find conditions for weight functions under which the mixture random variable is between of its components in likelihood ratio order. Originality/value Results are obtained for weight function in general. It is well known that the some special weights are order statistics, up and down records, hazard rate, reversed hazard rate, moment generating function, etc. So, the results are valid for all of them.

We characterize the (continuous) majorization of integrable functions introduced by Hardy, Littlewood, and Pólya in terms of the (discrete) majorization of finite-dimensional vectors, introduced by the same authors. The most interesting version of this result is the characterization of the (increasing) convex order for integrable random variables in terms of majorization of vectors of expected order statistics. Such a result includes, as particular cases, previous results by Barlow and Proschan and by Alzaid and Proschan, and, in a sense, completes the picture of known results on order statistics. Applications to other stochastic orders are also briefly considered.

Abstract:
We characterize the (continuous) majorization of integrable functions introduced by Hardy, Littlewood, and Pólya in terms of the (discrete) majorization of finite-dimensional vectors, introduced by the same authors. The most interesting version of this result is the characterization of the (increasing) convex order for integrable random variables in terms of majorization of vectors of expected order statistics. Such a result includes, as particular cases, previous results by Barlow and Proschan and by Alzaid and Proschan, and, in a sense, completes the picture of known results on order statistics. Applications to other stochastic orders are also briefly considered.
