Many industries use dynamic pricing on an operational level to maximize revenue from selling a fixed capacity over a finite horizon. Classical risk-neutral approaches do not accommodate the risk aversion often encountered in practice. We add to the scarce literature on risk aversion by...

The NP-hard nature of cardinality constrained mean-variance portfolio optimization problems has led to a variety of different algorithms with varying degrees of success in reaching optimality given limited computational resources and under the presence of strict time constraints in practice. The...

Pena's method of construction of a synthetic indicator is very sensitive to the order in which the constituent variables (whose linear aggregation yields the synthetic indicator) are arranged. Due to this, Pena's method can at present give only an arbitrary synthetic indicator whose...

An analogue can be made between: (a) the slow pace at which species adapt to an environment, which often results in the emergence of a new distinct species out of a once homogeneous genetic pool, and (b) the slow changes that take place over time within a fund, mutating its investment style. A...
