Type: article
Abstract: and sketch two applications, one to statistical estimation for (probabilistic) functions of Markov processes [l] and one to Blakley's model for ecology [4]. 2. Result. THEOREM. Let P(x)=P({xij}) be a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients homogeneous of degree d in its variables {##}. Let x = {##} be any point of the domain D: ##§:(),]pLi # # = 1, i = l, • • • , p, j=l, • • • , q%. For x = {xij} ££> let 3(#) = 3{##} denote the point of D whose i, j coordinate is
