Total positivity in Markov structures

We discuss properties of distributions that are multivariate totally positive of order two (MTP2) related to conditional independence. In particular, we show that any independence model generated by an MTP2 distribution is a compositional semi-graphoid which is upward-stable and singletontransitive....
