We study multidimensional inequality on integers. In such a setting, a Lorenz-like preorder and a suitably adapted version of the Muirhead-Pigou-Dalton transfers are defined, and a counterpart of some classic results on inequality measurement is established in this multivariate setting.

Abstract
We study multidimensional inequality on integers. In such a setting, a Lorenz-like preorder and a suitably adapted version of the Muirhead-Pigou-Dalton transfers are defined, and a counterpart of some classic results on inequality measurement is established in this multivariate setting.File in questo prodotto:
