The Economics of Corporate Executive Pay [PDF]

, 2007
[Excerpt] In the past ten years, the pay of chief executive officers (CEOs) has more than doubled, and the ratio of median CEO to worker pay has risen to 179 to 1. High and rising executive pay could be an issue of public concern on two different grounds.

Kernel methods in machine learning

, 2008
We review machine learning methods employing positive definite kernels. These methods formulate learning and estimation problems in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) of functions defined on the data domain, expanded in terms of a kernel.

Derivation of Hermite-Hadamard-Jensen-Mercer conticrete inequalities for Atangana-Baleanu fractional integrals by means of majorization

Demonstratio Mathematica
This article is mainly concerned to link the Hermite-Hadamard and the Jensen-Mercer inequalities by using majorization theory and fractional calculus. We derive the Hermite-Hadamard-Jensen-Mercer-type inequalities in conticrete form, which serve as both ...

Fractional Integral Estimates of Boole Type: Majorization and Convex Function Approach with Applications

Fractal and Fractional
The goal of this paper is to use a Boole-type inequality framework to provide better estimates for differentiable functions. Using majorization theory, fractional integral operators are incorporated into a new auxiliary identity.

Singular solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic equations and applications

, 2011
We study the properties of solutions of fully nonlinear, positively homogeneous elliptic equations near boundary points of Lipschitz domains at which the solution may be singular. We show that these equations have two positive solutions in each cone of $\

Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer Inequalities Associated with Twice-Differentiable Functions with Applications

Axioms
In this work, we initially derive an integral identity that incorporates a twice-differentiable function. After establishing the recently created identity, we proceed to demonstrate some new Hermite–Hadamard–Mercer-type inequalities for twice ...

Pathwise Accuracy and Ergodicity of Metropolized Integrators for SDEs

, 2009
Metropolized integrators for ergodic stochastic differential equations (SDE) are proposed which (i) are ergodic with respect to the (known) equilibrium distribution of the SDE and (ii) approximate pathwise the solutions of the SDE on finite time ...

A Copula-GARCH Model for Macro Asset Allocation of a Portfolio with Commodities: an Out-of-Sample Analysis [PDF]

, 2011
Many authors have suggested that the mean-variance criterion, conceived by Markowitz (1952), is not optimal for asset allocation, because the investor expected utility function is better proxied by a function that uses higher moments and because returns ...
