We give a method of constructing maps between tubular groups inductively according to a set of strategies. This map will be a quasi-isometry exactly when the set of strategies is consistent. Conversely, if there exists a quasi-isometry between tubular groups, then there is a consistent set of strategies for them. There…

The existence of optimal strategy in robust utility maximization is addressed when the utility function is finite on the entire real line. A delicate problem in this case is to find a "good definition" of admissible strategies, so that an optimizer is obtained. Under suitable assumptions, especially a time-consistency …

result LLMs' strategy switching is only partially consistent with behavioral finance theories.

Standard agglomerative clustering suggests establishing a new reliable linkage at every step. However, in order to provide adaptive, density-consistent and flexible solutions, we study extracting all the reliable linkages at each step, instead of the smallest one. Such a strategy can be applied with all common criteria…

Importance sampling (IS) is a common reweighting strategy for off-policy prediction in reinforcement learning. While it is consistent and unbiased, it can result in high variance updates to the weights for the value function. In this work, we explore a resampling strategy as an alternative to reweighting. We propose Im…

Trading strategies that were profitable in the past often degrade with time. Since unlucky streaks can also hit "healthy" strategies, how can one detect that something truly worrying is happening? It is intuitive that a drawdown that lasts too long or one that is too deep should lead to a downward revision of the assum…
