The particular entropy method proposed by Hoch et al. [7] for the computation of NMR complex spectra allows an elegant application of the concepts of duality theory. Correspondingly, duality theory casts new light on their choice of entropy. The purpose of this paper is to present the relevant...

We give an explicit PDE characterization for the solution of the problem of maximizing the utility of both terminal wealth and intertemporal consumption under model uncertainty. The underlying market model consists of a risky asset, whose volatility and long-term trend are driven by an external...

The shortfall risk is defined as the optimal mean value of the terminal deficit produced by a self-financing portfolio whose initial value is smaller than what is required to replicate a contingent claim. In this paper we look for an explicit expression for it, as well as for the optimal...
