Multivariate Concave and Convex Stochastic Dominance
One of the big challenges in decision analysis is the assessment of a decision maker’s utility function. To the extent that the alternatives under consideration in a decision-making problem can be partially ordered based on less-than-full information about the utility function, the problem can be simplified somewhat by eliminating dominated alternatives. At the same time, partial orders can hel...
متن کاملA note on convex stochastic dominance
In this paper, we extend Fishburn’s convex stochastic dominance theorem to include any distribution function. This paper also considers risk takers as well as risk averters, and discusses third order stochastic dominance. We apply separation and representation theorems to obtain a concise alternative proof of the theorem. Our results are used to extend a theorem of Bawa et.al. on comparison bet...
متن کاملStochastic Dynamic Optimization with Multivariate Stochastic Dominance Constraints
In this problem Z0 is a convex closed subset of a Banach spaceZ , and G and H are continuous operators from Z to the space of integrable random variables L1(Ω,F , P). The random variable Y plays the role of a benchmark outcome. For example, one may set Y = G(z̄), where z̄ ∈ Z0 is some reasonable value of the decision vector, which is currently employed in the system. The relation (2) is the stoch...
متن کاملMultivariate stochastic dominance for risk averters and risk seekers
This paper first extends some well-known univariate stochastic dominance results to multivariate stochastic dominances (MSD) for both risk averters and risk seekers, respectively, to n order for any n ≥ 1 when the attributes are assumed to be independent and the utility is assumed to be additively and separable. Under these assumptions, we develop some properties for MSD for both risk averters ...
متن کاملModels and formulations for multivariate dominance-constrained stochastic programs
The use of a stochastic dominance constraint to specify risk preferences in a stochastic program has been recently proposed in the literature. Such a constraint requires the random outcome resulting from one’s decision to stochastically dominate a given random comparator. These ideas have been extended to problems with multiple random outcomes, using the notion of positive linear stochastic dom...
