Abstract We analyze the effect of regulatory capital constraints on financial stability in a large homogeneous banking system using a mean‐field game (MFG) model. Each bank holds cash and a tradable risky asset. Banks choose absolutely continuous trading rates in order to maximize expected terminal equity, with trades subject to transaction costs ...

A Markov approach to credit rating migration conditional on economic states
Abstract We develop a model for credit rating migration that accounts for the impact of economic state fluctuations on default probabilities. The joint process for the economic state and the rating is modelled as a time‐homogeneous Markov chain. While the rating process itself possesses the Markov property only under restrictive conditions, methods ...

Bayesian clustering of multivariate extremes
Abstract The asymptotic dependence structure between multivariate extreme values is fully characterized by their projections on the unit simplex. Under mild conditions, the only constraint on the resulting distributions is that their marginal means must be equal, which results in a nonparametric model that can be difficult to use in applications ...

Abstract Intensity–duration–frequency curves are used by a wide range of professionals to manage the risks related to extreme rainfall. In Canada, these curves are produced by Environment and Climate Change Canada on the basis of Gumbel distributions fitted independently for each accumulation period.

Bayesian inverse ensemble forecasting for COVID‐19
Abstract Variations in strains of COVID‐19 have a significant impact on the rate of surges and on the accuracy of forecasts of the epidemic dynamics. The primary goal for this article is to quantify the effects of varying strains of COVID‐19 on ensemble forecasts of individual “surges.” By modelling the disease dynamics with an SIR model, we solve the ...

A goodness‐of‐fit test for regression models with discrete outcomes
Abstract Regression models are often used to analyze discrete outcomes, but classical goodness‐of‐fit tests such as those based on the deviance or Pearson's statistic can be misleading or have little power in this context. To address this issue, we propose a new test, inspired by the work of Czado et al.

Existence of Full Replica Symmetry Breaking for the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick Model at Low Temperature
ABSTRACT We verify the existence of full replica symmetry breaking (FRSB) for the Sherrington–Kirkpatrick (SK) model and determine the structure of its Parisi measure slightly beyond the high temperature regime. More specifically, we prove that the support of the Parisi measure for the SK model consists of an interval starting at the origin slightly ...

Self‐Similar Blowup for the Cubic Schrödinger Equation
ABSTRACT We give a rigorous proof for the existence of a finite‐energy, self‐similar solution to the focusing cubic Schrödinger equation in three spatial dimensions. The proof is computer‐assisted and relies on a fixed point argument that shows the existence of a solution in the vicinity of a numerically constructed approximation.
