Lower partial moments plays an important role in the analysis of risks and
in income/poverty studies. In the present paper, we further investigate its importance
in stochastic modeling and prove some characterization theorems arising out of it. We
also identify its relationships with other important applied models such as weighted
and equilibrium models. Finally, some applications of lower partial moments in
poverty studies are also examined |
