Portfolio Decisions with Higher Order Moments [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we address the global optimization of two interesting nonconvex problems in finance. We relax the normality assumption underlying the classical Markowitz mean-variance portfolio optimization model and consider the incorporation of skewness

Time evolution towards q-Gaussian stationary states through unified Ito-Stratonovich stochastic equation

open access: yes, 2010
We consider a class of single-particle one-dimensional stochastic equations which include external field, additive and multiplicative noises. We use a parameter $\theta \in [0,1]$ which enables the unification of the traditional It\^o and Stratonovich ...

Vibrations in CDFW

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Continuous drive friction welding is a solid-state welding process that has been experimentally proven to be a fast and reliable method. This is a complex process; deformations in the viscosity of a material alter the friction between the surfaces of the

Temporal Aggregation of the Returns of a Stock Index Series [PDF]

open access: yes
The effects of temporal aggregation on asymmetry properties and the kurtosis of returns based on the NYSE composite index are studied. There is less asymmetry in responses to shocks for weekly and monthly frequencies than for the daily frequency ...

The Generalized Spectral Kurtosis Estimator

open access: yes, 2010
Due to its conceptual simplicity and its proven effectiveness in real-time detection and removal of radio frequency interference (RFI) from radio astronomy data, the Spectral Kurtosis (SK) estimator is likely to become a standard tool of a new generation

Autorregresive conditional volatility, skewness and kurtosis [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes a GARCH-type model allowing for time-varying volatility, skewness and kurtosis. The model is estimated assuming a Gram-Charlier series expansion of the normal density function for the error term, which is easier to estimate than the ...

Study on genetics of yield component traits under salt stress in two rice crosses raised using honeycomb selection design

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding
Yield components related to grain yield were severely affected by salinity. For the agronomically important traits, precise phenotyping of crop plants is essential under stress where soil heterogeneity is aggravated for genetic analysis and developing ...

A Distribution Family Bridging the Gaussian and the Laplace Laws, Gram–Charlier Expansions, Kurtosis Behaviour, and Entropy Features

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
The paper devises a family of leptokurtic bell-shaped distributions which is based on the hyperbolic secant raised to a positive power, and bridges the Laplace and Gaussian laws on asymptotic arguments.

Simulating the market coefficient of relative risk aversion

open access: yesCogent Economics & Finance, 2014
In this paper, expected utility, defined by a Taylor series expansion around expected wealth, is maximized. The coefficient of relative risk aversion (CRRA) that is commensurate with a 100% investment in the risky asset is simulated.
