Inequalities for Ek(X,Y) When the Marginals are Fixed.
Abstract
When k(x,y) is a quasi-monotone function and the random variables X and Y have fixed distributions, it is shown under some further mild conditions that Ek(X,Y) is a monotone functional of the joint distribution function of X and Y. Its infimum and supremum are both attained and correspond to explicitly described joint distribution functions. (Author)
