Distortion function

A distortion function in mathematics and statistics, for example, , is a non-decreasing function such that and . The dual distortion function is . Distortion functions are used to define distortion risk measures. Given a probability space , then for any random variable and any distortion function we can define a new probability measure such that for any it follows that (Wikipedia).

Fin Math L7: The Wang transform and the Lorenz curve in Black-Scholes-Merton

Welcome to Financial Mathematics. In this lesson we continue our discussion about the Wang transform and we also introduce an interesting connection with the Lorenz curve, a very useful instrument originally developed in the inequality studies' literature. As we shall see, the use of Wang
