Efficient analytic approximation of the optimal hedging strategy for a European call option with transaction costs

2006

One of the most successful approaches to option hedging with transaction costs is the utility-based approach, pioneered by Hodges and Neuberger [Rev. Futures Markets, 1989, 8, 222–239]. Judging against the best possible trade-off between the risk and the costs of a hedging strategy, this approach seems to achieve excellent empirical performance. However, this approach has one major drawback that prevents the broad application of this approach in practice: the lack of a closed-form solution. We overcome this drawback by presenting a simple yet efficient analytic approximation of the solution. We provide an empirical testing of our approximation strategy against the asymptotic and some other …

Genetics of maximal walking speed and skeletal muscle characteristics in older women.

2008

AbstractThe aim of this study was to examine whether maximal walking speed, maximal isometric muscle strength, leg extensor power and lower leg muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) shared a genetic effect in common. In addition, we wanted to identify the chromosomal areas linked to maximal walking speed and these muscle characteristics and also investigate whether maximal walking speed and these three skeletal muscle characteristics are regulated by the same chromosomal areas. We studied 217 monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) female twin pairs aged 66 to 75 years in the Finnish Twin Study on Aging study. The DZ pairs (94) were genotyped for 397 microsatellite markers in 22 autosomes and X-chr…

Tradición romanística y perspectivas de reforma en sede de cláusula penal

2012

El autor analiza el tratamiento legal de la cláusula penal en el Derecho civil español, con especial atención a la regulación que ofrece el Código civil en los artículos 1152 a 1154, las diferentes funciones que la cláusula penal cumple y el distinto régimen presente en la Lex 518 del Fuero Nuevo de Navarra, lo cual evidencia el dualismo habido en el sistema jurídico español entre el Derecho civil común (representado por el Código civil) y el derecho foral o especial (representado por distintas compilaciones de ámbito regional). La regulación del Código civil español configura la pena contractual en primer término como sustitutiva de la indemnización de daños y perjuicios prevista en el art…

Weyl's theorem for perturbations of paranormal operators

2007

A bounded linear operator T ∈ L(X) on a Banach space X is said to satisfy "Weyl's theorem" if the complement in the spectrum of the Weyl spectrum is the set of all isolated points of the spectrum which are eigenvalues of finite multiplicity. In this paper we show that if T is a paranormal operator on a Hilbert space, then T + K satisfies Weyl's theorem for every algebraic operator K which commutes with T.

CLAUSOLE VESSATORIE, NULLITÀ DI PROTEZIONE E POTERI DEL GIUDICE: ALCUNI PUNTI FERMI DOPO LE SENTENZE JŐRÖS E ASBEEK BRUSSE

2013

The paper takes the recent cases Erika Jőrös (Case C- 397/11,) and Asbeek Brusse,(case C-488-11), both dated 30 may 2013, as a starting point for a more general analysis of the ECJ’s approach to the legal consequences to be drawn by a national Court from finding that a contractual term is unfair. According to the Author, the approach adopted by the Court is the same that it has already been expressed in Mostaza Claro case. By revisiting the earlier Océno, the Court clarified that national courts have not only the right but even the duty to assess the fairness or unfairness of standards terms of their own motion. Well, beginning from Mostaza Claro judgement and until the last ones, the ECJ h…

Shoulder muscle activation during stable and suspended push-ups at different heights in healthy subjects.

2015

Abstract Objectives To analyze shoulder muscle activation when performing push-ups under different stability conditions and heights. Study design Comparative study by repeated measures. Setting Valencia University laboratory. Participants 29 healthy males participated. Main outcome measures Subjects performed 3 push-ups each with their hands at 2 different heights (10 vs. 65 cm) under stable conditions and using a suspension device. Push-up speed was controlled and the testing order was randomized. The average amplitudes of the electromyographic root mean square of the long head of the triceps brachii (TRICEP), upper trapezius (TRAPS), anterior deltoid (DELT) and clavicular pectoralis (PEC)…

Supply chain coordination under asymmetric information and partial vertical integration

2022

AbstractSupply chain contracting is known to suffer from inefficiency in the presence of asymmetric information. Full vertical integration would eliminate the informational inefficiency but can be strategically undesirable. Yet today’s supply chain partnerships exhibit a certain degree of partial vertical integration via equity ties between the firms. Such governance forms received limited attention in supply chain research. Management literature suggests that partial vertical integration may help the firms to ease contracting problems by aligning their incentives, and thus improve the total surplus. We address this proposition by studying a model of a partially integrated supply chain in w…
