Information‐Theoretic Approach to Financial Market Modeling
ABSTRACT The paper treats the financial market as a communication system, using four information‐theoretic assumptions to derive an idealized model with only one parameter. State variables are scalar stationary diffusions. The model maximizes the surprisal of the market and minimizes the Kullback–Leibler divergence between the benchmark‐neutral pricing

ABSTRACTProbabilism is the thesis that the degrees of belief of rational agents behave like Kolmogorovian probabilities. There are quite different lines of argument for probabilism in the literature, including Dutch book arguments, arguments based on representation theorems, and epistemic utility arguments. This paper focusses on the Dutch book line of

Dogmatism and Easy Knowledge: Avoiding the Dialectic?
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes and objects to the anti‐skeptical strategy endorsed by Epistemological Dogmatism. Dogmatism is a theory of epistemic justification that holds perceptual warrant for our beliefs is immediate, based on experiential seemings. Crucially, it rejects requests for higher‐order justification or active defense of the justification ...

Experience and Time: A Metaphysical Approach
ABSTRACT What is the temporal structure of conscious experience? While it is popular to think that our most basic conscious experiences are temporally extended, we will be arguing against this view, on the grounds that it makes our conscious experiences depend on the future in an implausible way.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of problem‐posing on the mathematical proficiency and engagement of 56 Developmental Mathematics (DM) students enrolled in a noncredit college mathematics course. Using a quasi‐experimental design, one of two existing classes was selected as the experimental group and received a 5‐week intervention focused on

Rational points on even‐dimensional Fermat cubics
Abstract We show that even‐dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic not equal to three, by constructing explicit rational parameterizations with polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our rationality constructions, we obtain estimates for the number of their rational points over a number field and ...

Earthquake Ground Motion Cycle Count Datasets
This study presents a comprehensive set of earthquake ground motion cycle count datasets derived from the NGA‐West2 and NGA‐Sub databases. We applied peak counting, mean‐crossing, level‐crossing, and rainflow cycle counting methods to over 275,000 acceleration time series.

On the Hardness of Switching to a Small Number of Edges
ABSTRACT Seidel's switching is a graph operation which makes a given vertex adjacent to precisely those vertices to which it was non‐adjacent before, while keeping the rest of the graph unchanged. Two graphs are called switching‐equivalent if one can be made isomorphic to the other one by a sequence of switches. Jelínková et al. [DMTCS 13, no. 2, 2011]

ABSTRACT This study develops a novel multivariate stochastic framework for assessing systemic risks, such as climate and nature‐related shocks, within production or financial networks. By embedding a linear stochastic fluid network, interpretable as a generalized vector Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, into the production network of interdependent ...
