Given a finite ground set N and a value vector ${a \in \mathbb{R}^N}$ , we consider optimization problems involving maximization of a submodular set utility function of the form ${h(S)= f \left(\sum_{i \in S} a_i \right ), S \subseteq N}$ , where f is a strictly concave, increasing, differentiable function. This utility function appears frequently in combinatorial optimization problems when modeling risk aversion and decreasing marginal preferences, for instance, in risk-averse capital budgeting under uncertainty, competitive facility location, and combinatorial auctions. These problems can be formulated as linear mixed 0-1 programs. However, the standard formulation of these problems using submodular inequalities is ineffective for their solution, except for very small instances. In this paper, we perform a polyhedral analysis of a relevant mixed-integer set and, by exploiting the structure of the utility function h, strengthen the standard submodular formulation significantly. We show the lifting problem of the submodular inequalities to be a submodular maximization problem with a special structure solvable by a greedy algorithm, which leads to an easily-computable strengthening by subadditive lifting of the inequalities. Computational experiments on expected utility maximization in capital budgeting show the effectiveness of the new formulation. 相似文献

We consider the problem of utility maximization for investors with power utility functions. Building on the earlier work Larsen et al. (2016), we prove that the value of the problem is a Fréchet-differentiable function of the drift of the price process, provided that this drift lies in a suitable Banach space.We then study optimal investment problems with non-Markovian driving processes. In such models there is no hope to get a formula for the achievable maximal utility. Applying results of the first part of the paper we provide first order expansions for certain problems involving fractional Brownian motion either in the drift or in the volatility. We also point out how asymptotic results can be derived for models with strong mean reversion. 相似文献

An incomplete financial market is considered with a risky asset and a bond. The risky asset price is a pure jump process whose dynamics depends on a jump-diffusion stochastic factor describing the activity of other markets, macroeconomics factors or microstructure rules that drive the market. With a stochastic control approach, maximization of the expected utility of terminal wealth is discussed for utility functions of constant relative risk aversion type. Under suitable assumptions, closed form solutions for the value functions and for the optimal strategy are provided and verification results are discussed. Moreover, the solution to the dual problems associated with the utility maximization problems is derived. 相似文献

In this paper it is shown that the projective cover of the trivial irreducible module of a finite-dimensional solvable restricted Lie algebra is induced from the one dimensional trivial module of a maximal torus. As a consequence, the number of the isomorphism classes of irreducible modules with a fixed p-character for a finite-dimensional solvable restricted Lie algebra L is bounded above by p MT(L), where MT(L) denotes the maximal dimension of a torus in L. Finally, it is proved that in characteristic p > 3 the projective cover of the trivial irreducible L-module is induced from the one-dimensional trivial module of a torus of maximal dimension, only if L is solvable. 相似文献

We study arbitrage opportunities, market viability and utility maximization in market models with an insider. Assuming that an economic agent possesses an additional information in the form of an \(\mathscr {F}_T\)-measurable discrete random variable G, we give criteria for the no unbounded profits with bounded risk property to hold, characterize optimal arbitrage strategies, and prove duality results for the utility maximization problem faced by the insider. Examples of markets satisfying NUPBR yet admitting arbitrage opportunities are provided. For the case when G is a continuous random variable, we consider the notion of no asymptotic arbitrage of the first kind (NAA1) and give an explicit construction for unbounded profits if NAA1 fails. 相似文献

This paper studies portfolio optimization problems in a market with partial information and price impact. We consider a large investor with an objective of expected utility maximization from terminal wealth. The drift of the underlying price process is modeled as a diffusion affected by a continuous-time Markov chain and the actions of the large investor. Using the stochastic filtering theory, we reduce the optimal control problem under partial information to the one with complete observation. For logarithmic and power utility cases we solve the utility maximization problem explicitly and we obtain optimal investment strategies in the feedback form. We compare the value functions to those for the case without price impact in Bäuerle and Rieder (IEEE Trans Autom Control 49(3):442–447, 2004) and Bäuerle and Rieder (J Appl Prob 362–378, 2005). It turns out that the investor would be better off due to the presence of a price impact both in complete-information and partial-information settings. Moreover, the presence of the price impact results in a shift, which depends on the distance to final time and on the state of the filter, on the optimal control strategy. 相似文献

We examine a class of utility maximization problems with a non-necessarily law-invariant utility, and with a non-necessarily law-invariant risk measure constraint. Under a consistency requirement on the risk measure that we call Vigilance, we show the existence of optimal contingent claims, and we show that such optimal contingent claims exhibit a desired monotonicity property. Vigilance is satisfied by a large class of risk measures, including all distortion risk measures and some classes of robust risk measures. As an illustration, we consider a problem of optimal insurance design where the premium principle satisfies the vigilance property, hence covering a large collection of commonly used premium principles, including premium principles that are not law-invariant. We show the existence of optimal indemnity schedules, and we show that optimal indemnity schedules are nondecreasing functions of the insurable loss. 相似文献

In this paper we introduce the notion of portfolio optimization by maximizing expected local utility. This concept is related to maximization of expected utility of consumption but, contrary to this common approach, the discounted
financial gains are consumed immediately. In a general continuous-time market optimal portfolios are obtained by pointwise
solution of equations involving the semimartingale characteristics of the underlying securities price process. The new concept
is applied to hedging problems in frictionless, incomplete markets. 相似文献

Optimal Long-Term Investment Model with Memory 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We consider a financial market model driven by an Rn-valued Gaussian process with stationary increments which is different from Brownian motion. This driving-noise process consists
of n independent components, and each component has memory described by two parameters. For this market model, we explicitly
solve optimal investment problems. These include: (i) Merton's portfolio optimization problem; (ii) the maximization of growth
rate of expected utility of wealth over the infinite horizon; (iii) the maximization of the large deviation probability that
the wealth grows at a higher rate than a given benchmark.
The estimation of parameters is also considered. 相似文献

In this paper, we study a class of second-order backward stochastic differential equations with quadratic growth in coefficients. In particular, we provide an existence result for these equations and give their applications by solving robust utility maximization problems and introducing a type of nonlinear evaluations. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the problem of optimal investment and proportional reinsurance coverage in the presence of inside information. To be more precise, we consider two firms: an insurer and a reinsurer who are both allowed to invest their surplus in a Black–Scholes‐type financial market. The insurer faces a claims process that is modeled by a Brownian motion with drift and has the possibility to reduce the risk involved with this process by purchasing proportional reinsurance coverage. Moreover, the insurer has some extra information at her disposal concerning the future realizations of her claims process, available from the beginning of the trading interval and hidden from the reinsurer, thus introducing in this way inside information aspects to our model. The optimal investment and proportional reinsurance decision for both firms is determined by the solution of suitable expected utility maximization problems, taking into account explicitly their different information sets. The solution of these problems also determines the reinsurance premia via a partial equilibrium approach. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

In this paper we introduce a special class of finite-dimensional symmetric subspaces of L1, so-called regular symmetric subspaces. Using this notion, we show that for any k?2, there exist k-dimensional symmetric subspaces of L1 which have maximal projection constant among all k-dimensional symmetric spaces. Moreover, L1 is a maximal overspace for these spaces (see Theorems 4.4 and 4.5.) Also a new asymptotic lower bound for projection constants of symmetric spaces is obtained (see Theorem 5.3). This result answers the question posed in [12, p. 36] (see also [15, p. 38]) by H. Koenig and co-authors. The above results are presented both in real and complex cases. 相似文献

Let H be a finite-dimensional bialgebra. In this paper, we prove that the category ?R(H) of Yetter-Drinfeld-Long bimodules, introduced by F. Panaite, F. Van Oystaeyen (2008), is isomorphic to the Yetter-Drinfeld category \({}_{H \otimes H*}^{H \otimes H*}YD\) over the tensor product bialgebra H ? H* as monoidal categories. Moreover if H is a finite-dimensional Hopf algebra with bijective antipode, the isomorphism is braided. Finally, as an application of this category isomorphism, we give two results. 相似文献

A ball of maximal radius inscribed in a convex closed bounded set with a nonempty interior is considered in the class of uniformly convex Banach spaces. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the centers of inscribed balls form a uniformly continuous (as a set function) set-valued mapping in the Hausdorff metric. In a finite-dimensional space of dimension n, the set of centers of balls inscribed in polyhedra with a fixed collection of normals satisfies the Lipschitz condition with respect to sets in the Hausdorff metric. A Lipschitz continuous single-valued selector of the set of centers of balls inscribed in such polyhedra can be found by solving n + 1 linear programming problems. 相似文献

The main purpose of this paper is to study the finite-dimensional solvable Lie algebras described in its title, which we call minimal non- \({\mathcal N}\). To facilitate this we investigate solvable Lie algebras of nilpotent length k, and of nilpotent length ≤k, and extreme Lie algebras, which have the property that their nilpotent length is equal to the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subalgebras. We characterise the minimal non-\({\mathcal N}\) Lie algebras in which every nilpotent subalgebra is abelian, and those of solvability index ≤3. 相似文献

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a nonexpansive map on a finite-dimensional normed space to have a nonempty, bounded set of fixed points. Among other results we show that if f: V → V is a nonexpansive map on a finite-dimensional normed space V, then the fixed point set of f is nonempty and bounded if and only if there exist w1,..., w m in V such that {f(w i ) ? w i : i = 1,..., m} illuminates the unit ball. This yields a numerical procedure for detecting fixed points of nonexpansive maps on finite-dimensional spaces. We also discuss applications of this procedure to certain nonlinear eigenvalue problems arising in game theory and mathematical biology. 相似文献

The present paper studies certain classes of closed convex sets in finite-dimensional real spaces that are motivated by their
application to convex maximization problems, most notably, those evolving from geometric clustering. While these optimization
problems are ℕℙ-hard in general, polynomial-time approximation algorithms can be devised whenever appropriate polyhedral approximations
of their related clustering bodies are available. Here we give various structural results that lead to tight approximations. 相似文献

In this article, we study the problem of maximizing expected utility from the terminal wealth with proportional transaction costs and random endowment. In the context of the existence of consistent price systems, we consider the duality between the primal utility maximization problem and the dual one, which is set up on the domain of finitely additive measures. In particular, we prove duality results for utility functions supporting possibly negative values. Moreover, we construct a shadow market by the dual optimal process and consider the utility-based pricing for random endowment. 相似文献

In this article, we consider an optimization problem of expected utility maximization of continuous-time trading in a financial market. This trading is constrained by a benchmark for a utility-based shortfall risk measure. The market consists of one asset whose price process is modelled by a Geometric Brownian motion where the market parameters change at a random time. The information flow is modelled by initially and progressively enlarged filtrations which represent the knowledge about the price process, the Brownian motion and the random time. We solve the maximization problem and give the optimal terminal wealth depending on these different filtrations for general utility functions by using martingale representation results for the corresponding filtration. 相似文献

In this paper we study the problem of utility indifference pricing in a constrained financial market, using a utility function defined over the positive real line. We present a convex risk measure −v(•:y) satisfying q(x,F)=x+v(F:u0(x)), where u0(x) is the maximal expected utility of a small investor with the initial wealth x, and q(x,F) is a utility indifference buy price for a European contingent claim with a discounted payoff F. We provide a dynamic programming equation associated with the risk measure (−v), and characterize v as a viscosity solution of this equation. 相似文献
