In this paper we study some stochastic orders of positive dependence that arise when the underlying random vectors are ordered with respect to some multivariate hazard rate stochastic orders, and have the same univariate marginal distributions. We show how the orders can be studied by...

The authors study new notions of positive dependence that are associated to multivariate stochastic orders of positive dependence introduced recently by Colangelo et al. [J. Multivar. Anal., to appear]. In particular, they discuss the relationship of these new notions to other existing concepts...

Every univariate random variable is smaller, with respect to the ordinary stochastic order and with respect to the hazard rate order, than a right censored version of it. In this paper we attempt to generalize these facts to the multivariate setting. It turns out that in general such comparisons...
