- This note records a common threshold/surplus decomposition for single-threshold stopping rules in the classical prophet inequality. The same decomposition is used to certify several deterministic thresholds, including the median, half-mean, and balanced-surplus thresholds, and to give an averaged certificate for randomized thresholds distributed as the maximum.
