Monotonicity properties of Dirichlet integrals with applications to the multinomial distribution and the analysis of variance
Stanford University
Bounds for the tails of Dirichlet integrals are established by showing that each integral as a function of the limits is a Schur function. In particular, it is shown how these bounds apply to the simultaneous analysis of variance test and to the multinomial distribution.
