On the Increasing Convex Order of Relative Spacings of Order Statistics
Relative spacings are relative differences between here order statistics.In this context, we extend previous results concerning the increasing convex order of relative spacings of two distributions from the case of consecutive spacings to general spacings.The sufficient conditions are given in terms of the expected proportional shortfall order.As an application, we compare relative deprivation read more within some parametric families of income distributions.
