A novel graphical matching approach improves pairs trading by reducing portfolio variance and risk-adjusted returns.

problem Common pairs trading methods lead to high portfolio variance and low risk-adjusted returns due to focusing on highly cointegrated assets.
method Model all assets and their cointegration levels with a weighted graph. Select pairs as a maximum weighted matching to ensure no shared assets and lower portfolio variance.
result The matching-based strategy shows a significant improvement in risk-adjusted performance, with a gross Sharpe ratio of 1.23.

Given a matched pair of Lie groups, we show that the tangent bundle of the matched pair group is isomorphic to the matched pair of the tangent groups. We thus obtain the Euler-Lagrange equations on the trivialized matched pair of tangent groups, as well as the Euler-Poincaré equations on the matched pair of Lie algebra…

Let Sg S_g be a closed surface of genus g g and let (α,β) (α, β) be a filling pair on Sg S_g ; then i(α,β)2g1 i(α, β) \geq 2g-1 , where i i is the (geometric) intersection number. Aougab and Huang demonstrated that (exponentially many) minimally-intersecting filling pairs exist on Sg S_g when g>2 g > 2 by a construction w…
