This paper presents a general theory that works out the relation between coherent risk measures, valuation bounds, and … theory presented seems to fill a gap between arbitrage valuation on the one hand and single agent utility maximization or … full-fledged equilibrium theory on the other hand. "Coherent" valuation bounds strike a balance in that the bounds can be …

We introduce the notion of a convex measure of risk, an extension of the concept of a coherent risk measure defined in … the underlying space of scenarios. As a case study, we consider convex measures of risk defined in terms of a robust not … ion of bounded shortfall risk. In the context of a financial market model, it turns out that the representation theorem is …

Empirical studies in family economics usually rely on questionnaires, statistical or panel data. Here we try to study experimentally some crucial aspects of engaging in a marriage. First the female partner can end the relationship or suggest one of the two forms of joint venture. Whereas a full...

There are three major points to this article: 1. Measurement error causes biases in regression fits. The line one would … exposure with error. 2. The effects of measurement error vary from study-to-study. It is dangerous to take measurement error … corrections derived from one study and apply them to data from entirely different studies or populations. 3. Measurement error can …

We discuss how to assess the performance for credit scores under the assumption that for credit data only a part of the defaults and nondefaults is observed. The paper introduces a criterion that is based on the difference of the score distributions under default and nondefault. We show how to...

An investor faced with a contingent claim may eliminate risk by (super-)hedging in a financial market. As this is often … quite expensive, we study partial hedges, which require less capital and reduce the risk. In a previous paper we determined … the shortfall risk defined as the expectation of the shortfall weighted by some loss function. The resulting efficient …

Under the assumptions of a bounded mean-variance tradeoff, substantial risk and a … nondegeneracy condition on the conditional variances of asset returns, we prove the existence of a locally risk-minimizing strategy … under the inclusion of transaction costs: The preceding strategy which is locally risk-minimizing inclusive of transaction …

We determine the increase of the maximum risk over the minimax risk in the case that the optimally robust estimator for … the relative risk is minimized in the case that the radius is known only to belong to some interval [pr, l'/p] " The … effect of increasing parameter dimension is studied for these models.
