On negative dependence inequalities and maximal scores in round-robin tournaments

Abstract

We extend Huber's (1963) inequality for the joint distribution function of negative dependent scores in round-robin tournaments. As a byproduct, this extension implies convergence in probability of the maximal score in round-robin tournaments in a more general setting.
