On a Comparison Result for Markov Processes

Abstract: A comparison theorem is stated for Markov processes in Polish state spaces. We consider a general class of stochastic orderings induced by a cone of real functions. The main result states that stochastic monotonicity of one process and comparability of the infinitesimal generators imply ordering of the processes. Several applications to convex type and to dependence orderings are given. In particular, Liggett's theorem on the association of Markov processes is a consequence of this comparison result.

“…Szekli (1995) and Rüschendorf (2008) extended this result to more general state spaces [29,Ch.3.7], [23,Cor.3.1]. Rüschendorf also extended the Liggett condition for PSA of the Markov process [23,Cor.3.4].…”

“…For time-inhomogeneous Markov processes X and Y , with Markov evolutions (S s,t ) s≤t and (T s,t ) s≤t , we say Y dominates X with respect to F if S s,t f ≤ T s,t f for all s ≤ t and all f ∈ F. Rüschendorf has proven comparison theorems for general Markov processes which are time-homogeneous (2008) [17] and time-inhomogeneous (2016) [18]. These sufficient conditions were based on the generators of the Markov process.…”

“…Stochastic ordering and comparison results for Markov processes are a basic problem of probability theory. They have a long history and are motivated by a number of applications in a variety of fields (see Massey (1987), Cox et al (1996), Daduna and Szekli (2006), Rüschendorf (2008), Krasin and Melnikov (2009), Rüschendorf and Wolf (2011), Rüschendorf et al (2016), Criens (2017) and Criens (2019)). Various approaches ranging from analytic to coupling methods have been developed to this aim sometimes in the context of specific models or specific applications.…”
