Hypercontractivity of order statistics and increments of fractional Brownian motion /

Let Xn n > 1, be a sequence of positive random numbers, let Xn,1 > Xn,2 > ...> Xn,n be the decreasing rearrangement of X,,. We are going to find necessary and sufficient conditions for hypercontractivity of the order statistics Xn,k when k is a constant. Then we will turn our attention...
