Abstract
Strassen established that there exists a two step martingale with marginal distributions , if and only if , are in convex order. Recently Chon\'e-Gozlan-Kramarz obtained a transport characterization of the stochastic order defined by convex positively 1-homogeneous functions, in the spirit of Strassen's theorem under certain technical assumptions. In this note we prove the Chon\'e-Gozlan-Kramarz result in full generality. We also observe that the restriction of the result to the case where are supported on a half space is equivalent to Strassen's classical theorem.
