Some tight polynomial-exponential lower bounds for an exponential function
This note is devoted to new sharp lower bounds for exp(x). We first introduce and study a new lower bound defined with polynomial of degree 2 and exponential (or hyperbolic) functions. Then we propose two improvements of this lower bound by using two different approaches; the first approach consists in adding well-chosen polynomial term to it, whereas the second approach aims to transform it fo...
متن کاملOption Pricing with an Exponential Effect Function
We consider option hedging and pricing for a large agent. The large agent affects the market’s demand-supply equilibrium and, therefore, the market prices of financial instruments. By assuming a specific large agent’s effect function for the underlying asset we derive the corresponding effect function for call options on that asset. As we show, the price of a call option in our model is the sol...
متن کاملAxiomatization of an exponential similarity function
An agent is asked to assess a real-valued variable y based on certain characteristics x = (x1, ..., xm), and on a database consisting of n observations of (x1, ..., xm, y). A possible approach to combine past observations of x and y with the current values of x to generate an assessment of y is similarity-weighted averaging. It suggests that the predicted value of y, ys n+1, be the weighted ave...
متن کاملCalculating an exceptional machine
In previous work we showed how to verify a compiler for a small language with exceptions. In this article we show how to calculate, as opposed to verify, an abstract machine for this language. The key step is the use of Reynold’s defunctionalization, an old program transformation technique that has recently been rejuvenated by the work of Danvy et al.
متن کاملAn Exceptional Programming Language
The use of exceptions in programming languages is usually reserved for exceptional conditions. This is a narrow view of exceptions, however. We demonstrate how exceptions can be used to express common programming language constructs, and thus form the basis of a new type of exception-based programming language. We also generalize exceptions so that they may be thrown into a program’s future exe...
