The article proposes a portfolio model subjected to a constraint that captures the investor's goal, with maximum estimation of expected return that is affected by investor sentiment. And we give a solution of the portfolio model by exploring the geometric features. Furthermore, we discuss the...

This paper presents the results of a comprehensive program of experiments in which fly ash particles were impacted under controlled conditions against a flat steel surface. The overall aim of these experiments was to gain an understanding of the ash deposition process in a pulverized coal boiler...

This study investigated the rebound behavior of SiO₂ particles normally impacting a planar surface under different temperature conditions. The system has been characterized for an aerosol inlet temperature range of 20–190 °C, flow velocities of 0–20 ms⁻¹, and an impaction surface...

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to examine whether the shareholding of the largest shareholder and other large shareholders could exert a good stimulating effect within a firm's corporate governance structure and what impact the balance of power among large shareholders could have on top...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of supervisor-subordinate guanxi (SSG) on managers’ feedback-seeking behavior in the context of Chinese organizations, especially the mediating role of psychological expectations and the moderating role of political skill....

We propose a suite of statistical methods for inferring a cis-regulatory module, which is a combination of several transcription factors binding in the promoter regions to regulate gene expression. The approach is an integrative analysis that combines information from multiple types of...

The low-rank matrix completion problem can be solved by Riemannian optimization on a fixed-rank manifold. However, a drawback of the known approaches is that the rank parameter has to be fixed a priori. In this paper, we consider the optimization problem on the set of bounded-rank matrices. We...

Many exotic derivatives do not have closed-form valuation equations, and must be priced using approximation methods. Where they can be applied, standard lattice techniques based on binomial and trinomial trees will achieve correct valuations asymptotically. They can also generally handle...
