Mathematical analysis of investment systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Investment systems are studied using a framework that emphasize their profiles (the cumulative probability distribution on all the possible percentage gains of trades) and their log return functions (the expected average return per trade in logarithmic scale as a function of the investment size in terms of the percentage of the available capital). The efficiency index for an investment system, defined as the maximum of the log return function, is proposed as a measure to compare investment systems for their intrinsic merit. This efficiency index can be viewed as a generalization of Shannon’s information rate for a communication channel. Applications are illustrated. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

A Novel Two-Stage Mathematical Model for Green Supplier Development
Nowadays, numerous processes of any supply chain are done by suppliers and consequently they cause a massive amount of pollution released to the nature. Hence, greening the suppliers has become a necessity. Although most of green supplier development programs need high investment, formal optimization models that address this issue are very rare. This paper mainly aims to address this prob...
متن کاملInterval network data envelopment analysis model for classification of investment companies in the presence of uncertain data
The main purpose of this paper is to propose an approach for performance measurement, classification and ranking the investment companies (ICs) by considering internal structure and uncertainty. In order to reach this goal, the interval network data envelopment analysis (INDEA) models are extended. This model is capable to model two-stage efficiency with intermediate measures i...

متن کاملDesigning a Multi-Objective Mathematical Model Using Intuitionistic Fuzzy Approach to Select Investment Projects (Case of Investment Opportunities in Bushehr Province)
Strategic development goals is achieved by investment potential utilization of each region. Some of these goals may be inconsistent. Therefore, Governments want to align a combination of different investment objectives and sometimes contradictory as far as possible. This study aimed to explain the mathematical model for investment projects by providing an integer linear programming model with t...
متن کاملProject resource investment problem under progress payment model
As a general branch of project scheduling problems, resource investment problem (RIP) considers resource availabilities as decision variables to determine a level of employed resources minimizing the costs of the project. In addition to costs (cash outflows), researchers in the later extensions of the RIP took payments (cash inflows) received from clients into account and used the net present v...
