The professional services sector is at a turning point, with some industries showing growth opportunities.

problem Identifying growth opportunities in the professional services sector after decades of growth.
method A simple framework applied to the US economic context to diagnose growth opportunities.

P.W. Anderson proposed the concept of complexity in order to describe the emergence and growth of macroscopic collective patterns out of the simple interactions of many microscopic agents. In the physical sciences this paradigm was implemented systematically and confirmed repeatedly by successful confrontation with rea…

This paper solves the problem of optimal dynamic consumption, investment, and healthcare spending with isoelastic utility, when natural mortality grows exponentially to reflect Gompertz' law and investment opportunities are constant. Healthcare slows the natural growth of mortality, indirectly increasing utility from c…

result Achieved mean absolute error of 1.91±0.87 planes from ground truth.

A financial market comprising of a certain number of distinct companies is considered, and the following statement is proved: either a specific agent will surely beat the whole market unconditionally in the long run, or (and this "or" is not exclusive) all the capital of the market will accumulate in one company. Thus,…

Algorithm reduces long-term policy regret in ML decision-making.

problem Capturing long-term impacts of ML decisions in communities.
method Modeling communities as arms in a multi-armed bandit problem, defining policy regret as a stronger metric than external regret.
result Algorithm achieves provably sub-linear policy regret for long time horizons.

Investors optimize equity and CDS trading to mitigate default risk.

problem Optimizing investment in equity and CDS markets to manage default risk.
method Semi-linear PDE for certainty equivalent, proving existence and optimality of policies.
result Optimal CDS policies cover both equity and future trading losses, increasing investor utility.

This paper evaluates investment risks in LATAM AI startups using DCF method.

problem Unique challenges and risks faced by LATAM tech startups.
method Total Addressable Market (TAM), Serviceable Available Market (SAM), and Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM) metrics; Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method.
result Developed a ranking of emerging powers in Latin America for tech startup investment.

Expands robust profit opportunities to include distributional uncertainty.

problem Distributional uncertainty in financial markets.
method Formulates infinite dimensional primal problems, simplifies to finite dimensional dual problems using Wasserstein distance.
result Distributional uncertainty can enhance robustness of profit opportunities.

Why do nations produce scientific research? This is a fundamental problem in the field of social studies of science. The paper confronts this question here by showing vital determinants of science to explain the sources of social power and wealth creation by nations. Firstly, this study suggests a new general definitio…

We explore the role that random arbitrage opportunities play in hedging financial derivatives. We extend the asymptotic pricing theory presented by Fedotov and Panayides [Stochastic arbitrage return and its implication for option pricing, Physica A 345 (2005), 207-217] for the case of hedging a derivative when arbitrag…

It is shown that absence of arbitrage opportunity in financial markets is a particular case of existence of uncertainty in decision system. Absence of arbitrage opportunity is considered in the sense of the Arrow-Debreu model of financial market with a riskless asset, while uncertainty (or ambiguity) is defined on the …

We investigate triangular arbitrage within the spot foreign exchange market using high-frequency executable prices. We show that triangular arbitrage opportunities do exist, but that most have short durations and small magnitudes. We find intra-day variations in the number and length of arbitrage opportunities, with la…

Modeling business expansion as a stochastic control problem, the study finds that firms are incentivized to expand but may wait.

problem Optimizing business expansion under exposure constraints and opportunity costs.
method Formulated as a novel stochastic control problem combined with optimal stopping time, derived an explicit solution for exponential utility.
result Firms are incentivized to expand but may wait due to opportunity costs and other factors.

This paper analyzes how multiple investors can exploit relative arbitrage opportunities.

problem Analyzing how multiple investors can exploit relative arbitrage opportunities.
method Constructing a well-posed market dynamical system of McKean-Vlasov type, deriving optimal strategies, and finding Nash equilibrium.
result The conditions for relative arbitrage opportunities among competitive investors are derived.

There is vast empirical evidence that given a set of assumptions on the real-world dynamics of an asset, the European options on this asset are not efficiently priced in options markets, giving rise to arbitrage opportunities. We study these opportunities in a generic stochastic volatility model and exhibit the strateg…

Detects arbitrage in multi-asset derivatives markets.

problem Identifying arbitrage opportunities in multi-asset derivative markets.
method Using bijection between equivalent martingale measures and copulas, derived sufficient conditions for no-arbitrage and formulated an optimization problem.
result Constructs a market where individual derivatives are no-arb but collectively an arbitrage opportunity exists.

A fund manager invests both the fund's assets and own private wealth in separate but potentially correlated risky assets, aiming to maximize expected utility from private wealth in the long run. If relative risk aversion and investment opportunities are constant, we find that the fund's portfolio depends only on the fu…

method Developed linear and mixed-integer linear programs to compute the maximum option premium.
result No evidence of systematic stochastic arbitrage opportunities in S&P 500 index options.

AI systems that explain their decisions can be monitored for harmful intentions.

problem Monitoring AI systems' decision-making processes for harmful intentions is imperfect and can miss some misbehavior.
method Monitoring the chain of thought (CoT) of AI systems that communicate in human language.
result CoT monitoring is a promising but fragile approach to AI safety.

The demand for artificial intelligence has grown significantly over the last decade and this growth has been fueled by advances in machine learning techniques and the ability to leverage hardware acceleration. However, in order to increase the quality of predictions and render machine learning solutions feasible for mo…

Historical economic growth in Asia (excluding Japan) is analysed. It is shown that Unified Growth Theory is contradicted by the data, which were used (but not analysed) during the formulation of this theory. Unified Growth Theory does not explain the mechanism of economic growth. It explains the mechanism of Malthusian…
