Models of information aggregation in financial markets: a review

This article reviews static and dynamic models of information aggregation in the literature. It highlights the key assumptions these models make, the results they obtain and the issues that still need to be explored to further our understanding of information aggregation in financial markets.     

The maximum number of columns in supersaturated designs with

Cheng and Tang [Biometrika, 88 (2001), pp. 1169–1174] derived an upper bound on the maximum number of columns that can be accommodated in a two‐symbol supersaturated design (SSD) for a given number of rows () and a maximum in absolute value correlation between any two columns (). In particular, they proved that for (mod ) and . However, the only known SSD satisfying this upper bound is when . By utilizing a computer search, we prove that for , and . These results are obtained by proving the nonexistence of certain resolvable incomplete blocks designs. The combinatorial properties of the RIBDs are used to reduce the search space. Our results improve the lower bound for SSDs with rows and columns, for , and . Finally, we show that a skew‐type Hadamard matrix of order can be used to construct an SSD with rows and columns that proves . Hence, we establish for and for all (mod ) such that . Our result also implies that when is a prime power and (mod ). We conjecture that for all and (mod ), where is the maximum number of equiangular lines in with pairwise angle .     

Decomposable super‐simple NRBIBDs with block size 4 and index 6

Necessary conditions for the existence of a super‐simple, decomposable, near‐resolvable ‐balanced incomplete block design (BIBD) whose 2‐component subdesigns are both near‐resolvable ‐BIBDs are (mod ) and . In this paper, we show that these necessary conditions are sufficient. Using these designs, we also establish that the necessary conditions for the existence of a super‐simple near‐resolvable ‐RBIBD, namely (mod ) and , are sufficient. A few new pairwise balanced designs are also given.     

On the order of summability of the Fourier inversion formula

In this article we show that the order of the point value, in the sense of Łojasiewicz, of a tempered distribution and the order of summability of the pointwise Fourier inversion formula are closely related. Assuming that the order of the point values and certain order of growth at infinity are given for a tempered distribution, we estimate the order of summability of the Fourier inversion formula. For Fourier series, and in other cases, it is shown that if the distribution has a distributional point value of order k, then its Fourier series is e.v. Cesàro summable to the distributional point value of order k+1. Conversely, we also show that if the pointwise Fourier inversion formula is e.v. Cesàro summable of order k, then the distribution is the (k+1)-th derivative of a locally integrable function, and the distribution has a distributional point value of order k+2. We also establish connections between orders of summability and local behavior for other Fourier inversion problems.     

Further results on the maximum size of a hole in an incomplete t‐wise balanced design with specified minimum block size*

Kreher and Rees 3 proved that if h is the size of a hole in an incomplete balanced design of order υ and index λ having minimum block size , then, They showed that when t = 2 or 3, this bound is sharp infinitely often in that for each h ≥ t and each k ≥ t + 1, (t,h,k) ≠(3,3,4), there exists an ItBD meeting the bound. In this article, we show that this bound is sharp infinitely often for every t, viz., for each t ≥ 4 there exists a constant C_t > 0 such that whenever (h ? t)(k ? t ? 1) ≥ C_t there exists an ItBD meeting the bound for some λ = λ(t,h,k). We then describe an algorithm by which it appears that one can obtain a reasonable upper bound on C_t for any given value of t. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Accelerated Poisson-Boltzmann calculations for static and dynamic systems

We report here an efficient implementation of the finite difference Poisson-Boltzmann solvent model based on the Modified Incomplete Cholsky Conjugate Gradient algorithm, which gives rather impressive performance for both static and dynamic systems. This is achieved by implementing the algorithm with Eisenstat's two optimizations, utilizing the electrostatic update in simulations, and applying prudent approximations, including: relaxing the convergence criterion, not updating Poisson-Boltzmann-related forces every step, and using electrostatic focusing. It is also possible to markedly accelerate the supporting routines that are used to set up the calculations and to obtain energies and forces. The resulting finite difference Poisson-Boltzmann method delivers efficiency comparable to the distance-dependent dielectric model for a system tested, HIV Protease, making it a strong candidate for solution-phase molecular dynamics simulations. Further, the finite difference method includes all intrasolute electrostatic interactions, whereas the distance dependent dielectric calculations use a 15-A cutoff. The speed of our numerical finite difference method is comparable to that of the pair-wise Generalized Born approximation to the Poisson-Boltzmann method.

Self-Converse Directed BIBDs with Block Size Four

A directed balanced incomplete block design (or D B(k,;v)) (X,) is called self-converse if there is an isomorphic mapping f from (X,) to (X,^–1), where ^–1={B ^–1:B} and B ^–1=(x _k ,x _{k –1},,x ₂,x ₁) for B=(x ₁,x ₂,,x _{k –1},x _k ). In this paper, we give the existence spectrum for self-converse D B(4,1;v). AMS Classification:05BResearch supported in part by NSFC Grant 10071002 and SRFDP under No. 20010004001     

Zur quantitativen Auswertung von Mikro-Autoradiogrammen mit dem Densitron

Die vorliegende Arbeit beschāftigt sich mit der Answertung von Autoradiogrammen inhomogen markierter mikroskopischer Strukturen am Densitron. Dazu fertigten wir von herkömmlichen Stripping-Filmen (z. B. ORW O K 106) Mikro-Stufengraukeile an und bestimmten die Schwärzung S_ijeder Stufe photometrisch. Graukeile geeigneten Schwärzungsumfangs dienten dann zur Einstellung der Farbtrigger des Densitrons, so daß sich die bei dieser Einstellung gemessenen Farbflächen F_i des jeweiligen Objektes bestimmten Schwärzungswerten zuordnen ließen.

Als Modellobjekte verwendelen wir erstens Autoradiogramme von ³H-Thymidin-markierten Tumorzellen. Vergleichsmessungen an unterschiedlich lange exponierten, sonst aber identischen Präparaten ergaben eine gute Reproduzierbarkeit der Meßergebnisse. Als zweites Testobjekt dienlen Autoradiogramme einer nur schwach markierten Struktur im Gehirn von Fröschen. Die an diesem Grenzfall erhaltenen Ergebnisse werden mit Meßwerten verglichen, die vom gleichen Objekt mittels Scanning-Photometrie an einem. Mikroskop-Photometer SMP 01 (OPTON, Oberkoches, BRD) gewonnen wurden.
