Notes on free lunch in the limit and pricing by conjugate duality theory
King and Korf [9] introduced, in the framework of a discrete-time dynamic market model on a general probability space, a new concept of arbitrage called free lunch in the limit which is slightly weaker than the common free lunch. The definition was motivated by the attempt at proposing the pricing theory based on the theory of conjugate duality in optimization. We show that this concept of arbi...
متن کاملDoob’s Inequality for Non-commutative Martingales
Introduction: Inspired by quantum mechanics and probability, non-commutative probability has become an independent field of mathematical research. We refer to P.A. Meyer’s exposition [Me], the successive conferences on quantum probability [AvW], the lecture notes by Jajte [Ja1, Ja2] on almost sure and uniform convergence and finally the work of Voiculescu, Dykema, Nica [VDN] and of Biane, Speic...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Effect of Local Buckling and VIV Fatigue on Failure Probability of Subsea Pipelines in Iranian South Pars Gas Field
Free-span occurs normally in a pipeline at uneven seabed, dynamic seabed and pipeline crossing. Free spanning in pipeline causes Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) fatigue, fracture and bursting. In this paper, a pipeline located in South Pars Gas Field is assessed against local buckling and VIV fatigue using probability of failure theory based on the recommended methodology by Det Norske Veritas (...

Large random matrices appear in different fields of mathematics and physics such as combinatorics, probability theory, statistics, operator theory, number theory, quantum field theory, string theory etc... In the last ten years, they attracted lots of interests, in particular due to a serie of mathematical breakthroughs allowing for instance a better understanding of local properties of their s...
متن کاملReview of Probability Theory
Probability theory is the study of uncertainty. Through this class, we will be relying on concepts from probability theory for deriving machine learning algorithms. These notes attempt to cover the basics of probability theory at a level appropriate for CS 229. The mathematical theory of probability is very sophisticated, and delves into a branch of analysis known as measure theory. In these no...
