The Hadamard Determinant Inequality - Extensions to Operators on a Hilbert Space

open access: yes, 2017
A generalization of classical determinant inequalities like Hadamard's inequality and Fischer's inequality is studied. For a version of the inequalities originally proved by Arveson for positive operators in von Neumann algebras with a tracial state, we ...

ESG Performance and Credit Risk: Evidence From Chinese Manufacturing Companies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effect of corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance on credit risk using a sample of manufacturing firms listed on China's Shanghai and Shenzhen A‐share markets from 2009 to 2021. Employing fixed effects, the generalised method of moments, and instrumental variable models, we find that ...

On an upper bound for Sherman’s inequality

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2016
Considering a weighted relation of majorization, Sherman obtained a useful generalization of the classical majorization inequality. The aim of this paper is to extend Sherman’s inequality to convex functions of higher order.

Inconsistency of the Capital Asset Pricing Model in a Multi‐Currency Environment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a widely adopted model in asset pricing theory and portfolio construction because of its intuitive nature. One of its main conclusions is that there exists a global market portfolio that each rational investor should hold in proportion to the risk‐free asset. In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically

Refinements of the integral form of Jensen’s and the Lah–Ribarič inequalities and applications for Csiszár divergence

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2020
In this paper, we give refinements of the integral form of Jensen’s inequality and the Lah–Ribarič inequality. Using these results, we obtain a refinement of the Hölder inequality and a refinement of some inequalities for integral power means and ...

Jensen's inequality for the Tukey median [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Jensen's inequality states for a random variable X with values in Rd and existing expectation and for any convex function f : R^d -> R, that f(E(X))

An approach for metric space with a convex combination operation and applications

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we embed metric space endowed with a convex combination operation, named convex combination space, into a Banach space and the embedding preserves the structures of metric and convex combination.

CSR disclosure and investment efficiency in MENA countries: The moderating role of CSR committee

open access: yesStrategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate social responsibility disclosure (CSRD) is often recognized as a transparency mechanism that allows companies to communicate their commitment to CSR. However, CSRD may also exacerbate agency conflicts. This study addresses these two contrasting perspectives by investigating the impact of CSRD on investment efficiency and exploring ...

Around Jensen's inequality

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 1994
Let \(\tau\) be a normal semifinite trace on a von Neumann algebra \(A\), let \(\alpha: A\to A\) be a positive linear contraction and let \(a= a^*\in A\). If \(f\) is a continuous convex function defined on the spectrum of \(a\), then it is shown that if \(\tau(\alpha(f(a))_+)< \infty\) then either \(\tau((f(\alpha(a)))_+)< \infty\) or \(\tau((f(\alpha(

A Framework for Understanding and Evaluating Localization: The Case of HelpAge International

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many transnational non‐governmental organizations (TNGOs) are reevaluating their organizational forms and norms as they pursue localization. Localization itself is a contested and multifaceted concept, however, complicating the design, implementation, and evaluation of localization efforts.
