چکیده

Abstract: We introduce a sequential investment strategy, called semi-log-optimal strategy. This strategy is related to the log-optimal portfolio approach, where instead of logarithmic objective function its Taylor series approximation is used. The asymptotic rate of growth is analyzed under the only assumption that the market is stationary and ergodic. The performance of the strategy is compared to the optimal asymptotic rate of growth provided by the log-optimal strategy. Bound on the deviation of the performances is shown. The advantage of our semilog-optimal portfolio approach is that it performs very close to the log-optimal strategy, meanwhile it allows a simpler and more ”standardized” computation of the corresponding portfolio vector.

Kernel-based Semi-log-optimal Empirical Portfolio Selection Strategies

The purpose of this paper is to introduce an approximation of the kernel-based logoptimal investment strategy that guarantees an almost optimal rate of growth of the capital under minimal assumptions on the behavior of the market. The new strategy uses much less knowledge on the distribution of the market process. It is analyzed both theoretically and empirically. The theoretical results show t...

The Return on Investment from Proportional Portfolio Strategies

Dynamic asset allocation strategies that are continuously rebalanced so as to always keep a fixed constant proportion of wealth invested in the various assets at each point in time play a fundamental role in the theory of optimal portfolio strategies. In this paper we study the rate of return on investment, defined here as the net gain in wealth divided by the cumulative investment, for such in...

Joint pricing, inventory, and preservation decisions for deteriorating items with stochastic demand and promotional efforts

This study models a joint pricing, inventory, and preservation decision-making problem for deteriorating items subject to stochastic demand and promotional effort. The generalized price-dependent stochastic demand, time proportional deterioration, and partial backlogging rates are used to model the inventory system. The objective is to find the optimal pricing, replenishment, and preservation t...

Optimal Control via Integrating the Dynamics of Magnetorheological Dampers and Structures

Magnetorheological (MR) dampers have the advantage of being tuned by low voltages. This has attracted many researchers to develop semi-active control of structures in theory and practice. Most of the control strategies first obtain the desired forces of dampers without taking their dynamics into consideration and then determine the input voltages according to those forces. As a result, these st...
