This chapter presents majorization results for PH generators. Based on the majorization results, bounds on the moments and Laplace-Stieltjes transforms of phase-type distributions are found. Exponential distributions and Coxian distributions are identified to be extremal PH distributions with respect to all the moments and Laplace-Stieltjes transforms for certain subsets of PH distributions. © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2013.
