A Short Proof of Strassen’s Theorem Using Convex Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a simple proof of Strassen’s theorem on stochastic dominance using linear programming duality, without requiring measure-theoretic arguments. The result extends to generalized inequalities using conic optimization duality and provides an additional, intuitive optimization formulation for stochastic dominance.

متن کاملA Type of Strassen’s Theorem for Positive Vector Measures with Values in Dual Spaces
In this paper, we extend a type of Strassen’s theorem for the existence of probability measures with given marginals to positive vector measures with values in the dual of a barreled locally convex space which has certain order conditions. In this process of the extension we also give some useful properties for vector measures with values in dual spaces.
متن کاملGroups with one conjugacy class of non-normal subgroups - a short proof
For a finite group $G$ let $nu(G)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups of $G$. We give a short proof of a theorem of Brandl, which classifies finite groups with $nu(G)=1$.
متن کاملOn Strassen’s Theorem on Stochastic Domination
The purpose of this note is to make available a reasonably complete and straightforward proof of Strassen’s theorem on stochastic domination, and to draw attention to the original paper. We also point out that the maximal possible value of P(Z = Z ′) is actually not reduced by the requirement Z Z ′. Here, Z,Z ′ are stochastic elements that Strassen’s theorem states exist under a stochastic domi...
متن کاملStability Proof of Gain-Scheduling Controller for Skid-to-Turn Missile Using Kharitonov Theorem
Gain scheduling is one of the most popular nonlinear control design approaches which has been widely and successfully applied in fields ranging from aerospace to process control. Despite the wide application of gain scheduling controllers, there is a notable lack of analysis on the stability of these controllers. The most common application of these kinds of controllers is in the field of fligh...
