Abstract

top
The classical dowry, secretary, or beauty contest problem is extended. The author considers payoff functions that are more general than those of J. P. Gilbert and F. Mosteller [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 61 (1966), 35–73; MR0198637], A. G. Mucci [Ann. Statist. 1 (1973), 104–113; MR0383668] and Y. S. Chow, S. Moriguti, H. Robbins and S. M. Samuels [Israel J. Math. 2 (1964), 81–90; MR0176583].
