A matrix approach to the statistics of longevity in heterogeneous frailty models
Background: The gamma-Gompertz model is a fixed frailty model in which baseline mortality increasesexponentially with age, frailty has a proportional effect on mortality, and frailty at birth follows a gamma distribution.

On the Stochastic Volatility in the Generalized Black-Scholes-Merton Model
This paper discusses the generalized Black-Scholes-Merton model, where the volatility coefficient, the drift coefficient of stocks, and the interest rate are time-dependent deterministic functions.

The Variance-Gamma Distribution: A Review
The variance-gamma (VG) distributions form a four-parameter family which includes as special and limiting cases the normal, gamma and Laplace distributions. Some of the numerous applications include financial modelling and distributional approximation on Wiener space.

Asymptotic Normality in Linear Regression with Approximately Sparse Structure
In this paper, we study the asymptotic normality in high-dimensional linear regression. We focus on the case where the covariance matrix of the regression variables has a KMS structure, in asymptotic settings where the number of predictors, p, is ...

LOCAL VARIANCE GAMMA AND EXPLICIT CALIBRATION TO OPTION PRICES [PDF]
In some options markets (e.g., commodities), options are listed with only a single maturity for each underlying. In others (e.g., equities, currencies), options are listed with multiple maturities. In this paper, we analyze a special class of pure jump Markov martingale models and provide an algorithm for calibrating such models to match the market ...

The Downside and Upside Beta Valuation in the Variance-Gamma Model
The paper is aimed to assess the risks and gains of investment portfolio which relate to the impact of a particular asset. We consider the investment portfolios which consist of assets with variance-gamma, gamma distributed and deterministic returns. The

Multivariate Downside Risk: Normal Versus Variance Gamma [PDF]
AbstractAlthough several types of options on multiple assets are popular in today's financial markets, valuing multiasset options is still a challenge in finance. The standard framework of multivariate normality is often inappropriate, since it ignores fat tails and other stylized facts of asset returns.

Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
