Abstract: We establish the functional convex order results for two scaled McKean-Vlasov processes X=(Xt)tin[0,T] and Y=(Yt)tin[0,T] defined on a filtered probability space (Omega,mathcalF,(mathcalFt)tgeq0,mathbbP) by [�egin{cases} dX_{t}= b(t, X_{t}, mu_{t})dt+sigma(t, X_{t}, mu_{t})dB_{t}, ;;X_{0}in L^{p}(mathbb{P}),\ dY_{t},= b(t, ,Y_{t},,,

u_{t})dt+ heta(t, ,Y_{t},,,

u_{t})dB_{t}, ;;Y_{0}in L^{p}(mathbb{P}), end{cases}] where pgeq2, for every tin[0,T], mut, ut denote the probability distribution of Xt, Yt respectively and the drift coefficient b(t,x,mu) is affine in x (scaled). If we make the convexity and monotony assumption (only) on sigma and if sigmapreceqheta with respect to the partial matrix order, the convex order for the initial random variable X0preceq,cvY0 can be propagated to the whole path of process X and Y. That is, if we consider a convex functional F defined on the path space with polynomial growth, we have mathbbEF(X)leqmathbbEF(Y); for a convex functional G defined on the product space involving the path space and its marginal distribution space, we have under appropriate conditions. The symmetric setting is also valid, that is, if hetapreceqsigma and Y0leqX0 with respect to the convex order, then mathbbE,F(Y)leqmathbbE,F(X) and . The proof is based on several forward and backward dynamic programming principles and the convergence of the Euler scheme of the McKean-Vlasov equation.
