Additional Statistical Applicationsare given. These examples have been chosen in part be- cause the exposition of the statistical background is minimal, so that the main emphasis lies in the use of majorization. There are other ex- amples, not given here, where the statistical material is more involved and/or the majorization does not play as critical a role.

Doubly Stochastic MatricesAn important tool in the study of majorization is a theorem due to Hardy, Littlewood, and Pólya (1929) which states that for ., ..,. if and only if . = . for some doubly stochastic matrix ..

Equivalent Conditions for MajorizationIn order to verify that . is majorized by ., the conditions of the definition might be directly checked, but it is sometimes more con-venient to check alternative conditions. The purpose of this chapter is to collect some such alternatives.

Rearrangements and MajorizationMany inequalities are known that involve real vectors and vectors with the components rearranged. Such inequalities are discussed in Chapter X of Hardy, Littlewood, and Pólya (1934, 1952), but a number of new results have been obtained since that book was written. Particularly 4 noteworthy is the work of Lorentz (1953) and Day (1972).

Stochastic MajorizationsA comparison between two random vectors . and . might be called 1 a . if the comparison reduces to the ordinary 2 majorization . in case . and . are degenerate at . and .; i.e.,.

Matrix Theory of matrix theory. These majorizations 7 primarily involve quantities such as the eigenvalues or singular val- 8 ues of matrix sums or products. An integral part of the development 9 of majorization in matrix theory is the extremal representations of 10 Chapter 20.

Preservation and Generation of Majorizationarious properties besides ma- jorization, or.is derived from.in a specified manner. These kinds of origins of majorization are summarized in Section B. In Section C, ex- treme vectors (in the ordering of majorization) under constraints are identified, and Section D gives some special results for vectors with integer components.
