On a connection between total positivity and last-success stopping problems

Consider the optimal stopping problem of maximising the expected payoff from selecting the last success in a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials. The total positivity of the Markov chain embedded in the success epochs of the trials is exploited to prove the optimality of the myopic strategy for...
