A joint model of cost and churn for the insurance industry

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract In insurance markets, claim costs are highly variable, heavy‐tailed, and difficult to predict. At the same time, policyholder retention and lapse behavior (customer churn) are critical determinants of long‐term profitability and solvency. Most existing models in the literature treat claim costs and lapses as independent, overlooking potential ...

Second order structures for sprays and connections on Fréchet manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Ambrose, Palais and Singer introduced the concept of second order structures on finite dimensional manifolds. Kumar and Viswanath extended these results to the category of Banach manifolds.

Selfsimilar Hessian and conformally Kähler manifolds

open access: yes, 2020
Let $(M,\nabla,g)$ be a Hessian manifold. Then the total space of the tangent bundle $TM$ can be endowed with a Kähler structure $\left(I,{\cal g}\right)$. We say that a homogeneous Hessian manifold is a Hessian manifold $(M,\nabla,g)$ endowed with a transitive action of a group $G$ preserving $\nabla$ and $g$.

Testing Distributional Granger Causality With Entropic Optimal Transport

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a novel nonparametric test for Granger causality in distribution based on entropic optimal transport. Unlike classical mean‐based approaches, the proposed method directly compares the full conditional distributions of a response variable with and without the history of a candidate predictor.

Multiple Chains Markov Switching Vector Autoregression

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Both the U.S. stock and bond returns exhibit distinct Markovian regimes. However, because these regimes display limited coherence, conventional models typically require highly parameterized systems to adequately capture their joint distribution.

Mixed Hessian inequalities and uniqueness in the class $\mathcal{E}(X, \omega, m)$

open access: yes, 2014
We prove a general inequality for mixed Hessian measures by global arguments. Our method also yields a simplification for the case of complex Monge–Ampère equation.

Penalized Convex Estimation in Dynamic Location Models

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper studies L1$$ {L}^1 $$‐penalized estimation for location models yt=mt+ϵt$$ {y}_t={m}_t+{\epsilon}_t $$, where mt$$ {m}_t $$ is defined by a possibly non‐Markovian recursion and ϵt$$ {\epsilon}_t $$ is a martingale difference sequence with possibly time‐varying conditional variance.

Moving Aggregate Modified Autoregressive Copula‐Based Time Series Models (MAGMAR‐Copulas)

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Copula‐based time series models can model univariate and stationary time series in a flexible way by decomposing the joint distribution of consecutive observations into a copula and the stationary distribution. Implicitly, this approach assumes a finite Markov order. In reality, a time series may not follow the Markov property.
