In recent decades, the increasingly tight emissions regulations, along with the ever-increasing price of fuels and the request for more power from the engines, has pushed the world car industry to improve the performances of the applications of electronics, designed to control the internal...

Smart beta strategies across economic regimes seek to address inefficiencies created by market-based indices, thereby enhancing portfolio returns above traditional benchmarks. Our goal is to develop a strategy for re-hedging smart beta portfolios that shows the connection between multi-factor...

In this paper we introduce a calibration procedure suitable for the validation of agent based models. Starting from the well-known financial model of Brock and Hommes 1998, we show how an appro- priate calibration technique makes the model able to describe price time series.The calibration...

We derive a feasible criterion for the bias-optimal selection of the tuning parameters involved in estimating the integrated volatility of the spot volatility via the simple realized estimator by Barndorff-Nielsen and Veraart (2009). Our analytic results are obtained assuming that the spot...
