  bibo_abstract:
  - 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
    semigraphoid which is upward-stable and singleton-transitive. In addition, we
    prove that any MTP2 distribution satisfying an appropriate support condition is
    faithful to its concentration graph. Finally, we analyze factorization properties
    of MTP2 distributions and discuss ways of constructing MTP2 distributions; in
    particular we give conditions on the log-linear parameters of a discrete distribution
    which ensure MTP2 and characterize conditional Gaussian distributions which satisfy
    MTP2.@eng
