Abstract

A Lorenz hull is the convex hull of the range of an nn-dimensional vector of finite signed measures defined on a common measurable space. We show that the set of nn-dimensional Lorenz hulls is endowed with a natural product that is commutative, associative, and distributive over Minkowski sums. The same holds with "zonoid" in place of "Lorenz hull" as the two concepts give rise to the same set of subsets of Rn\mathbb{R}^n. The product is defined via the common notion of a product measure.
