Abstract

A simple method producing lower and upper bounds on E max(X1,...,Xn) is presented under assumption that the Xi's are independent normal random variables. Furthermore the upper bounds are determined when the Xi's are normal and positively correlated
Keywords: Multivariate normal distribution; convex order relation; maximum; expected value; bounds
