The FKG Inequality for Partially Ordered Algebras

نویسنده

  • Siddhartha Sahi
چکیده

The FKG inequality asserts that for a distributive lattice with logsupermodular probability measure, any two increasing functions are positively correlated. In this paper we extend this result to functions with values in partially ordered algebras, such as algebras of matrices and polynomials.

A combinatorial approach to height sequences in finite partially ordered sets

Fix an element x of a finite partially ordered set P on n elements. Then let hi(x) count the number of linear extensions of P in which x is in position i, starting the count from the bottom. The sequence {hi(x) : 1 ≤ i ≤ n} is called the height sequence of x in P . In 1982, Stanley used the Alexandrov–Fenchel inequalities for mixed volumes to prove that this sequence is log-concave, i.e., hi(x)...

A classification of hull operators in archimedean lattice-ordered groups with unit

The category, or class of algebras, in the title is denoted by $bf W$. A hull operator (ho) in $bf W$ is a reflection in the category consisting of $bf W$ objects with only essential embeddings as morphisms. The proper class of all of these is $bf hoW$. The bounded monocoreflection in $bf W$ is denoted $B$. We classify the ho's by their interaction with $B$ as follows. A ``word'' is a function ...

FKG inequality on the Wiener space via predictable representation

Using the Clark predictable representation formula, we give a proof of the FKG inequality on the Wiener space. Solutions of stochastic differential equations are treated as applications and we recover by a simple argument the covariance inequalities obtained for diffusions processes by several authors.

Generalized $F$-contractions in Partially Ordered Metric Spaces

We discuss about the generalized $F$-contraction mappings in partially ordered metric spaces. For this, we first introduce the notion of ordered weakly $F$-contraction mapping. We also present some fixed point results about this type of mapping in partially ordered metric spaces. Next, we introduce the notion of $acute{mathrm{C}}$iri$acute{mathrm{c}}$ type generalized ordered weakly $F$-contrac...
