Optimal execution strategy for merger & acquisition contracts with price impact.
Paper predicts M&A deal success using ML and DL techniques.
A concept of martingale-fair index of return, consistent with Arbitrage Free Pricing Theory, is introduced. An explicit formula for the average rate of return of a group of investment/pension funds in a discrete time stochastic model is derived and several properties of this index are shown. In particular, it is proven…
Semi-analytic models are best suited to compare galaxy formation and evolution theories with observations. These models rely heavily on halo merger trees, and their realistic features (i.e., no drastic changes on halo mass or jumps on physical locations). Our aim is to provide a new framework for halo merger tree gener…
Company mergers and acquisitions are often perceived to act as catalysts for corporate growth in free markets systems: it is conventional wisdom that those activities lead to better and more efficient markets. However, the broad adoption of this perception into corporate strategy is prone to result in a less diverse an…
Study examines market reactions and spillovers in Japanese bank mergers using multiple methods.
This article extends, in a stochastic environment, the Yagil (1987) model which establishes, in a deterministic dividend discount model, a range for the exchange ratio in a stock-for-stock merger agreement. Here, we generalize Yagil's work letting both pre- and post-merger dividends grow randomly over time. If Yagil fo…
Pakistan examines digital mergers using traditional competition tools.
New method resolves ambiguity in measuring black hole merger angular momentum.
The present work has as principal objective analyze the evolution of the process of privatization, mergers and acquisitions of the big companies in the country in the last decades, to understand the conductive threads that formed the structural changes of the economy, in order world oligopólicas to insert it to the glo…
Study examines how mergers and acquisitions affect Indian banks' financial performance and capital structure.
The article improves the display of acceptable exchange ratios for merging companies.
Gravitational waves are predicted by the general theory of relativity. In [6] D. Christodoulou showed that gravitational waves have a nonlinear memory. We proved in [3] that the electromagnetic field contributes at highest order to the nonlinear memory effect of gravitational waves. In the present paper, we study this …
New algorithm clusters GRBs into two groups: short and long duration.
The FCA improved insider trading regulation after 2012, reducing abnormal returns.
Mass algorithm predicts M&A deals from patent data.
Empirical researchers are increasingly faced with rich data sets containing many controls or instrumental variables, making it essential to choose an appropriate approach to variable selection. In this paper, we provide results for valid inference after post- or orthogonal -Boosting is used for variable selection.…
New algorithm finds more arbitrage opportunities in DEXs.
This paper introduces strategies to maximize arbitrage profits in decentralized exchanges.
Study upper hedging prices for contingent claims in models with various types of arbitrage.
The paper explores arbitrage in financial markets under uncertainty using Wasserstein distance.
The paper investigates cyclic arbitrage opportunities in decentralized exchanges.
This note develops an arbitrage theory for a discrete-time market model without the assumption of the existence of a numéraire asset. Fundamental theorems of asset pricing are stated and proven in this context. The distinction between the notions of investment-consumption arbitrage and pure-investment arbitrage provide…
We construct and study market models admitting optimal arbitrage. We say that a model admits optimal arbitrage if it is possible, in a zero-interest rate setting, starting with an initial wealth of 1 and using only positive portfolios, to superreplicate a constant c>1. The optimal arbitrage strategy is the strategy for…
We generalize the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) to include the contribution of virtual arbitrage opportunities. We model the arbitrage return by a stochastic process. The latter is incorporated in the APT framework to calculate the correction to the APT due to the virtual arbitrage opportunities. The resulting relatio…
We introduce deep learning models to estimate the masses of the binary components of black hole mergers, , and three astrophysical properties of the post-merger compact remnant, namely, the final spin, , and the frequency and damping time of the ringdown oscillations of the fundamental bar mo…
No-arbitrage constraints on implied variance slope are weak, leading to almost guaranteed arbitrage in many cases.
We have embedded the classical theory of stochastic finance into a differential geometric framework called Geometric Arbitrage Theory and show that it is possible to: --Write arbitrage as curvature of a principal fibre bundle. --Parameterize arbitrage strategies by its holonomy. --Give the Fundamental Theorem of Asset …
We apply Geometric Arbitrage Theory to obtain results in mathematical finance for credit markets, which do not need stochastic differential geometry in their formulation. We obtain closed form equations involving default intensities and loss given defaults characterizing the no-free-lunch-with-vanishing-risk condition …
New method finds better arbitrage opportunities in AMMs.
In this work a relation between a measure of short-term arbitrage in the market and the excess growth of portfolios as a notion of long-term arbitrage is established. The former originates from "Geometric Arbitrage Theory" and the latter from "Stochastic Portfolio Theory". Both aim to describe non-equilibrium effects i…
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…
Deep learning models reconstruct volatility surfaces from noisy data under no-arbitrage constraints.
In frictionless financial markets, no-arbitrage is a local property in time. This means that a discrete time model is arbitrage-free if and only if there does not exist a one-period-arbitrage. With capital gains taxes, this equivalence fails. For a model with a linear tax and one non-shortable risky stock, we introduce…
We obtain a deterministic characterisation of the \emph{no free lunch with vanishing risk}, the \emph{no generalised arbitrage} and the \emph{no relative arbitrage} conditions in the one-dimensional diffusion setting and examine how these notions of no-arbitrage relate to each other.
A stock market is called diverse if no stock can dominate the market in terms of relative capitalization. On one hand, this natural property leads to arbitrage in diffusion models under mild assumptions. On the other hand, it is also easy to construct diffusion models which are both diverse and free of arbitrage. Can o…
Reflected geometric Brownian motion models are not arbitrage-free.
Develops a deep learning approach for statistical arbitrage.
New method finds arbitrage opportunities in fluctuating asset bands.
In a model independent discrete time financial market, we discuss the richness of the family of martingale measures in relation to different notions of Arbitrage, generated by a class of significant sets, which we call Arbitrage de la classe . The choice of reflects into the int…
We introduce the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking to arbitrage modeling. In the model, the arbitrage strategy is considered as being in the symmetry breaking phase and the phase transition between arbitrage mode and no-arbitrage mode is triggered by a control parameter. We estimate the control parameter for mom…
New method for pricing financial products without no-arbitrage condition.
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…
In the context of a general continuous financial market model, we study whether the additional information associated with an honest time gives rise to arbitrage profits. By relying on the theory of progressive enlargement of filtrations, we explicitly show that no kind of arbitrage profit can ever be realised strictly…

Short selling is key to exploiting arbitrage opportunities in financial markets.
No arbitrage in financial markets with special semimartingales.
This paper studies the concept of instantaneous arbitrage in continuous time and its relation to the instantaneous CAPM. Absence of instantaneous arbitrage is equivalent to the existence of a trading strategy which satisfies the CAPM beta pricing relation in place of the market. Thus the difference between the arbitrag…
