Abstract
In a multinomial population, when the procedure for selecting the most likely event is to choose the cell with maximum observations (ties broken by randomisation), the least favourable configuration is derived under certain restrictions on the probability vector. The results in particular disprove a conjecture of Marshall and Olkin (1979) and provide partial answers to all the four conjectures of Chen and Hwang (1984).
