HEDGING (CO)VARIANCE RISK WITH VARIANCE SWAPS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Theoretical and Applied Finance, 2008
In this paper, we quantify the impact on the representative agent's welfare of the presence of derivative products spanning covariance risk. In an asset allocation framework with stochastic (co)variances, we allow the agent to invest not only in the stocks but also in the associated variance swaps.

Conditional variances in UK regional house prices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The returns of house price indices for the 13 UK regions are modelled using time series processes, including conditional variances. The first conclusion is that the UK follows the USA, with some regions displaying time-varying variances and others with ...

Variance-of-Variance Risk Premium [PDF]

open access: yesReview of Finance, 2017
Abstract This article explores the premium for bearing the variance risk of the VIX index, called the variance-of-variance risk premium. I find that during the sample period from 2006 until 2014 trading strategies exploiting the difference between the implied and realized variance of the VIX index yield average excess returns of − 24.16%

Fluctuations of two-time quantities and non-linear response functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study the fluctuations of the autocorrelation and autoresponse functions and, in particular, their variances and co-variance. In a first general part of the Article, we show the equivalence of the variance of the response function with the second ...

Variance Minimization – Relationship between Completion-Time Variance and Waiting-Time Variance [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society. Series B. Applied Mathematics, 1996
AbstractThe completion-time variance (CTV) and the waiting-time variance (WTV) are two performance measures which are commonly used in optimization of single-machine scheduling systems. This paper shows that when the number of jobs is large the two measures are nearly equivalent in a probabilistic environment.

Comparison of different traits to evaluate the growth of bulls

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2008
The live weights of 8 243 performance-tested bulls from 100 to 400 days of age were analysed using random regression (RR) and single-trait animal models.

Estimating genetic variance contributed by a quantitative trait locus: A random model approach.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2022
Detecting quantitative trait loci (QTL) and estimating QTL variances (represented by the squared QTL effects) are two main goals of QTL mapping and genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

Modeling Conditional Volatility of Indian Banking Sector’s Stock Market Returns

open access: yesScientific Annals of Economics and Business, 2017
The study attempts to capture conditional variance of Indian banking sector’s stock market returns across the years 2005 to 2015 by employing different GARCH based symmetric and asymmetric models.

Unobserved component models with asymmetric conditional variances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Unobserved component models with GARCH disturbances are extended to allow for asymmetric responses of conditional variances to positive and negative shocks. The asymmetric conditional variance is represented by a member of the QARCH class of models.
