Fréchet Bounds

Tankov (2011) improved the Fréchet bounds for a bivariate copula when its values on a compact subset of [0, 1]2 are given. He showed that the best possible bounds are quasi-copulas and gave a sufficient condition for these bounds to be copulas. In this note we give weaker sufficient conditions to ensure that the bounds are copulas. We also show how this can be useful in portfolio selection. It turns out that finding a copula as a lower bound plays a key role in determining optimal investment strategies explicitly for investors with some type of state-dependent constraints.

Mean Variance

In this paper, we deal with multi-period mean-variance portfolio selection problems with an exogenous uncertain exit-time in a regime-switching market. The market is modelled by a non-homogeneous Markov chain in which the random returns of assets depend on the states of the market and investment time periods. Applying the Lagrange duality method, we derive explicit closed-form expressions for the optimal investment strategies and the efficient frontier. Also, we show that some known results in the literature can be obtained as special cases of our results. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the results.

In this paper we show that three conditions due to Pattanaik, when satisfied by a given profile of state-dependent preferences (linear orders) on a given and fixed set of alternatives and a probability distribution with which the various states of nature occur, are individually sufficient, for the non-emptiness of the set of alternative(s) which are individually preferred to all alternatives other than itself with probability at least half. Prior to this, we show that since each axiom individually implies Sen-Coherence, then, as a consequence of a result obtained earlier, each axiom along with asymmetry of the ‘preferred with at probability at least half” relation implies the transitivity of the relation. All the sufficient conditions discussed here are required to be applicable at least to all those otherwise relevant events that have positive probability. This observation also applies to a sufficient condition for the non-emptiness of the set of alternative(s) which are individually preferred to all alternatives other than itself with probability at least half, called Generalised Sen Coherence introduced and discussed in earlier research.

Ulam Type Stability

AbstractFour Ulam type stability concepts for non-instantaneous impulsive fractional differential equations with state dependent delay are introduced. Two different approaches to the interpretation of solutions are investigated. We study the case of an unchangeable lower bound of the Caputo fractional derivative and the case of a lower bound coinciding with the point of jump for the solution. In both cases we obtain sufficient conditions for Ulam type stability. An example is also provided to illustrate both approaches.

Abstract This paper studies optimal time-consistent strategies for the mean-variance portfolio selection problem. Especially, we assume that the price processes of risky stocks are described by regime-switching SDEs. We consider a Markov-modulated state-dependent risk aversion and we formulate the problem in the game theoretic framework. Then, by solving a flow of forward-backward stochastic differential equations, an explicit representation as well as uniqueness results of an equilibrium solution are obtained.

Abstract Let ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) be a strictly ordered monoid, and let {{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast }\left={\mathrm{\Gamma}}\backslash \{0\} . Let D\subseteq E be an extension of commutative rings with identity, and let I be a nonzero proper ideal of D. Set \begin{array}{l}D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] := \left\{f\in [\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le }]\kern-2pt] \hspace{0.15em}|\hspace{0.2em}f(0)\in D\right\}\hspace{.5em}\text{and}\\ \hspace{0.2em}D+[\kern-2pt[ {I}^{{\Gamma }^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] := \left\{f\in [\kern-2pt[ {D}^{{\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le }]\kern-2pt] \hspace{0.15em}|\hspace{0.2em}f(\alpha )\in I,\hspace{.5em}\text{for}\hspace{.25em}\text{all}\hspace{.5em}\alpha \in {{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast }\right\}.\end{array} In this paper, we give necessary conditions for the rings D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively ordered, and sufficient conditions for the rings D+[\kern-2pt[ {E}^{{{\mathrm{\Gamma}}}^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively totally ordered. Moreover, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the ring D+[\kern-2pt[ {I}^{{\Gamma }^{\ast },\le }]\kern-2pt] to be Noetherian when ({\mathrm{\Gamma}},\le ) is positively totally ordered. As corollaries, we give equivalent conditions for the rings D+({X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n})E{[}{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n}] and D+({X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n})I{[}{X}_{1},\ldots ,{X}_{n}] to be Noetherian.

Learning In The Limit

The paper deals with learning in the limit from positive data. After an introduction and overview of earlier results, we strengthen a result of Sato and Umayahara (1991) by establishing a necessary and sufficient condition for the satisfaction of Angluin's (1980) finite tell-tale condition. Our other two results show that two notions introduced here, the finite net property and the weak finite net property, lead to sufficient conditions for learning in the limit from positive data. Examples not solvable by earlier methods are also given.
