Let X1,...,Xn and Y1,...,Ym be independent distributed chi-squared
variables with one degree of freedom.
Define
    SX:=a1 *X1 + a2*X2 +... an*Xn        ai>0, i=1,...n
and
    SY:=b1 *Y1 + b2*Y2 +... bm*Ym        bj>0, j=1,...,m.
 
I need sufficient conditions  for  the ai's and the bj's
to show that SX is stochastically larger than SY.
 
Any references, comments and results for special cases would help me!!
