Rearrangement-based Schur order (Lemma 2.4, Lemma 2.7, Proposition 3.1) #
The paper defines D ≤_{∂₁S} E by comparing decreasing rearrangements of the partial
derivatives ∂₁D(·,v) and ∂₁E(·,v) (Definition 2.3). The library order SchurLE
compares the conditional distributions through continuous convex tests. Lemma 2.4 is their
equivalence; it combines the almost-everywhere derivative bridge with the
Hardy–Littlewood–Pólya theorem on the unit interval.
Definition 2.3: D ≤_{∂₁S} E via decreasing rearrangements of ∂₁D(·,v).

Lemma 2.4: the rearrangement Schur order of partial derivatives coincides with the Schur order of conditional distributions (convex-test form).
Lemma 2.7(i): E↓ ≤_lo D ≤_lo E↑ for every D ≤_{∂₁S} E, and both bounds belong to the
class.
Uniqueness of the lower-orthant maximum and minimum.
Lemma 2.7(ii): E↑ is CIS.
Lemma 2.7(iii): E↓(u,v)=v-E↑(1-u,v).
Lemma 2.7(iv): E↑ =_{∂₁S} E =_{∂₁S} E↓.
The increasing rearrangement in explicit form E↑(u,v)=∫_0^u (∂₁E(·,v))*.
Proposition 3.1: D ≤_{∂₁S} E ⇔ D↑ ≤_lo E↑ ⇔ D↓ ≥_lo E↓.
