For a conditional expectation E on a (unital) C*-algebra A there exists a real number K ≥ 1 such that the mapping K · E − idA is positive if and only if there exists a real number L ≥ 1 such that the mapping L ·E − idA is completely positive, among other equivalent conditions. The estimate (min K) ≤ (min L) ≤ (min K)[min K] is valid, where [·] denotes the integer part of a real number. As a con...

This paper investigates the short-term effects on the price of the ethically screened stocks of the Dow Jones Islamic Market World Index (DJIMWI) quarterly revisions. Using a sample of 8,250 stocks from May 1999 through June 2012, we find a significant price reaction of the ethically screened stocks following additions and deletions. The results show that additions (deletions) from emerging sto...

This paper analyzes the behavior of moving average technical trading rules applied to over 100 years of the Dow Jones Industrial Index. It is found that the differences between conditional means during buy and sell periods has changed dramatically over the previous 10 years relative to the previous 90 years of data, but differences in conditional variances have not changed much over the entire ...

Abstract:Accommodating exchange rate factors as exogenous disturbance, this paper proposes a mixed GARCH-Jump model to compares in general the volatility properties of returns series of the Shanghai composite index with those of the Dow Jones index. It also incorporates the asymmetry, clustering and leptokurtosis and fat-tail properties of returns volatility into an integrated analytic frame of...

using the gaussian 2003 software and mp2/ 6–311 ++ g** method for he: he, ne:ne andmp2/6-31g method for ar: ar, kr: kr and hf/sto-3g method for xe: xe, the optimizedinteraction energies between two like atoms of rare gases (he, ne, ar, kr and xe) as a functionof the distances between the centers of two considered atoms were evaluated and the resultswere interpreted according to the lennard – jo...

We introduce the Farrell-Jones Conjecture with coefficients in an additive category with G-action. This is a variant of the Farrell-Jones Conjecture about the algebraic Kor L-Theory of a group ring RG. It allows to treat twisted group rings and crossed product rings. The conjecture with coefficients is stronger than the original conjecture but it has better inheritance properties. Since known p...
