The value function of a transportation problem

We investigate the value of an optimal transportation problem with the maximization objective as a function of costs and vectors of production and consumption. The value is concave in production. For generic costs, the numbers of linearity domains and peak points are independent of costs and consumption. The peak points are determined by an auxiliary assignment problem. The volumes of the linearity domains are independent of costs while their dependence on consumption can be expressed via the multinomial distribution.     

Optimal intervention under stress scenarios: A case of the Korean financial system

We consider optimal intervention methods under budget constraints when financial systems face economic shocks. We propose two policies formulated by mixed-integer linear programs where regulators inject cash into institutions. One is to minimize systemic losses, and the other is to minimize the number of defaulting institutions. Using publicly available data on the Korean financial system, we construct its entire network and apply stress scenarios to the system to compare the performances of intervention strategies and derive insights on their workings.     

A variational problem determined by probability measures

ABSTRACT

An optimization problem of maximizing an integral of a function over a family of probability measures is considered. The problem is a generalization of a well-studied variational problem in mathematical economics, concerning optimal allocations. The specific generalization that we examine arises also in the limit of singularly perturbed optimal control problems. We examine the mathematical problem and allude to the singular perturbation motivation.     

Interior gradient estimate for steady flows of electrorheological fluids

In this paper, we consider the equations of stationary motion of electrorheological fluids in any dimension $n\ge 2$. We show that the first gradient of local solutions to the system has optimal $L^q$-regularity with some $q>1$ with respect to the one of the external force. This is achieved by comparison principle and a good $\lambda$-estimate.
