摘要
Operator monotone functions play an important role in economics. We show that 2-monotonicity is equivalent to decreasing relative risk premium, a notion recently introduced in microeconomics. We also show that an operator monotone function is risk vulnerable, a notion introduced by Gollier and Pratt.
