Multidimensional inequality and multidimensional generalized entropy measures: An axiomatic derivation
This paper generalizes the axiomatic approach to the design of income inequality measures to the multiattribute context. While the extension of most axioms considered desirable for inequality indices is straightforward, it is not entirely clear when a situation is more unequal than another when each person is characterised by a vector of attributes of wellbeing. We explore two majorization crit...
متن کاملA multidimensional discrete Hilbert-type inequality
In this paper, by using the way of weight coecients and technique of real analysis, a multidimensionaldiscrete Hilbert-type inequality with a best possible constant factor is given. The equivalentform, the operator expression with the norm are considered.
متن کاملAn Axiomatic Approach to Multidimensional Poverty Measurement via Fuzzy Sets
Multidimensional poverty concentrates on deprivations in the living standard of a population in terms of functioning failures of different quality of life attributes such as per capita real GDP, life expectancy at birth and educational attainment. More precisely, a threshold level is specified for each attribute and shortfalls of quantities of different attributes from respective thresholds for...
متن کاملMultidimensional Multifractal Random Measures
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a natural multidimensional generalization (MMRM) of the one dimensional multifractal random measures (MRM) introduced by Bacry and Muzy in [1]. The measures M we introduce are different from zero, homogeneous in space, isotropic and satisfy the following exact scale invariance relation: if T denotes some given cutoff parameter then the following equalit...
متن کاملMultidimensional Generalized Gini Indices
The axioms used to characterize the generalized Gini social evaluation orderings for one-dimensional distributions are extended to the multidimensional attributes case. A social evaluation ordering is shown to have a two-stage aggregation representation if these axioms and a separability assumption are satisfied. In the first stage, the distributions of each attribute are aggregated using gener...
