1991 Oxf. Econ. Papers 43 221 The concept of ‘majorization’ is useful as a partial ordering for the degree of heterogeneity. Let v = (v1,…vn) and v′ = (v′1,…v′n). Then v′ is said to majorize v if, and only if, there exists a doubly stochastic matrix P such that v = Pv′. Thus if the set of values v can be represented as a weighted average of the set of values v′, then thes set v′ is more heterogeneous than v.
