A Comparison among Portfolio Selection Strategies with Subordinated Lévy Processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper we describe portfolio selection models using Lévy processes. The contribution consists in comparing some portfolio selection strategies under different distributional assumptions. We first implement portfolio models under the hypothesis the

Continual decision‐making dynamics across biological organisms

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Decision‐making is a central function of adaptive behaviour in biological agents. However, strategies for adaptive decision‐making can vary substantially across species. Here, we aim to extend the comparative scope of decision‐making analyses to phylogenetically diverse organisms.

Low-frequency estimation of continuous-time moving average Lévy processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we study the problem of statistical inference for a continuoustime moving average Lévy process of the form Zt=∫ℝκ(t-s)dLs, t∈ℝ with a deterministic kernel κ and a Lévy process L. Especially the estimation of the Lévy measure v of L from

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

OPTION PRICING UNDER LÉVY PROCESSES: A UNIFYING FORMULA [PDF]

open access: yes
A new option pricing formula is presented that unifies several results of the existing literature on pricing exotic options under Lèvy processes. To demonstrate the flexibility of the formula a few examples are given which provide new valuation formulas ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

Cliquet option pricing with Meixner processes

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2018
We investigate the pricing of cliquet options in a geometric Meixner model. The considered option is of monthly sum cap style while the underlying stock price model is driven by a pure-jump Meixner–Lévy process yielding Meixner distributed log-returns ...

Environmental Regulation at the Crossroads: A Review of Catalysts and Barriers in Circular Economy Transitions

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid growing resource pressures, environmental regulation plays a critical role in enabling the transition to a circular economy (CE). This study conducts a systematic literature review to synthesize how different regulatory approaches—command‐and‐control, market‐based, voluntary, and reflexive—affect CE transitions across economic and ...

Fluid limit of the continuous-time random walk with general Lévy jump distribution functions. [PDF]

open access: yes
The continuous time random walk (CTRW) is a natural generalization of the Brownian random walk that allows the incorporation of waiting time distributions ψ(t) and general jump distribution functions η(x).

Spectral analysis of subordinate Brownian motions in half-line

open access: yes, 2011
We study one-dimensional Levy processes with Levy-Khintchine exponent psi(xi^2), where psi is a complete Bernstein function. These processes are subordinate Brownian motions corresponding to subordinators, whose Levy measure has completely monotone ...
