Abstract: | Let \(\bar x\) , \(\bar y\ \in\ R_n\) be vectors which satisfy x1 ≥ x2 ≥ … ≥ xn and y1 ≥ y2 >- … ≥ yn and Σxi = Σyi. We say that \(\bar x\) is power majorized by \(\bar y\) if Σxi p ≤ Σyi p for all real p ? 0, 1] and Σxi p ≥ Σyi p for p ∈ 0, 1]. In this paper we give a classification of functions ? (which includes all possible positive polynomials) for which \(\bar\phi(\bar x) \leq \bar\phi(\bar y)\) (see definition below) when \(\bar x\) is power majorized \(\bar y\) . We also answer a question posed by Clausing by showing that there are vectors \(\bar x\) , \(\bar y\ \in\ R^n\) of any dimension n ≥ 4 for which there is a convex function ? such that \(\bar x\) is power majorized by \(\bar y\) and \(\bar\phi(\bar x)\ >\ \bar\phi(\bar y)\) . |
