New method improves blockchain analysis by handling temporal changes and scalability.
We theoretically and empirically study portfolio optimization under transaction costs and establish a link between turnover penalization and covariance shrinkage with the penalization governed by transaction costs. We show how the ex ante incorporation of transaction costs shifts optimal portfolios towards regularized …
Sharp asymptotic lower bounds of the expected quadratic variation of discretization error in stochastic integration are given. The theory relies on inequalities for the kurtosis and skewness of a general random variable which are themselves seemingly new. Asymptotically efficient schemes which attain the lower bounds a…
Framework detects suspicious money laundering flows in large transaction graphs.
With the explosive growth of e-commerce and the booming of e-payment, detecting online transaction fraud in real time has become increasingly important to Fintech business. To tackle this problem, we introduce the TitAnt, a transaction fraud detection system deployed in Ant Financial, one of the largest Fintech compani…
The paper tackles auction market design flaws by randomizing closing times and optimizing transaction fees.
Bank transactions help predict macroeconomic indexes faster and more accurately.
Onflow optimizes portfolio allocation with gradient flows, robust to transaction fees.

This paper proposes a new method to optimize portfolio allocation with transaction costs using Wiener chaos expansion.
Deep models for financial transactions are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, especially when adding transaction tokens.
In this article we consider the Merton problem in a market with a single risky asset and transaction costs. We give a complete solution of the problem up to the solution of a free-boundary problem for a first-order differential equation, and find that the form of the solution (whether the problem is well-posed, whether…
Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that features a distributed, decentralized and trustworthy mechanism, which has made Bitcoin a popular global transaction platform. The transaction efficiency among nations and the privacy benefiting from address anonymity of the Bitcoin network have attracted many activities such as payment…
Hybrid model uses GNNs and pathfinding to optimize portfolio rebalancing costs.
IntraLayer connects digital finance platforms efficiently.
Proposes a neural network for efficient deep hedging strategies.
We consider indifference pricing of contingent claims consisting of payment flows in a discrete time model with proportional transaction costs and under exponential disutility. This setting covers utility maximisation as a special case. A dual representation is obtained for the associated disutility minimisation proble…
The pricing, hedging, optimal exercise and optimal cancellation of game or Israeli options are considered in a multi-currency model with proportional transaction costs. Efficient constructions for optimal hedging, cancellation and exercise strategies are presented, together with numerical examples, as well as probabili…
In this comment we discuss the problem of reconciling the linear efficiency of price returns with the long-memory of supply and demand. We present new evidence that shows that efficiency is maintained by a liquidity imbalance that co-moves with the imbalance of buyer vs. seller initiated transactions. For example, duri…
Optimal trading strategies for pairs trading have been studied by models that try to find either optimal shares of stocks by assuming no transaction costs or optimal timing of trading fixed numbers of shares of stocks with transaction costs. To find optimal strategies which determine optimally both trade times and numb…
Credit card fraud detection is a very challenging problem because of the specific nature of transaction data and the labeling process. The transaction data is peculiar because they are obtained in a streaming fashion, they are strongly imbalanced and prone to non-stationarity. The labeling is the outcome of an active l…
Proposes a robust and sparse portfolio selection model to reduce estimation errors and transaction costs.
Traditional market makers are losing their importance as automated systems have largely assumed the role of liquidity provision in markets. We update the model of Glosten and Milgrom (1985) to analyze this new world: we add multiple securities and introduce an automated market maker who uses the relationships between s…
Study optimizes rebate design in auction markets to enhance efficiency.
American options are studied in a general discrete market in the presence of proportional transaction costs, modelled as bid-ask spreads. Pricing algorithms and constructions of hedging strategies, stopping times and martingale representations are presented for short (seller's) and long (buyer's) positions in an Americ…
We prove a version of First Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing under transaction costs for discrete-time markets with dividend-paying securities. Specifically, we show that the no-arbitrage condition under the efficient friction assumption is equivalent to the existence of a risk-neutral measure. We derive dual repre…
Algorithm for hedging American options with transaction costs.
DECS tool assesses swap rates of DEXes and Fusion outperforms competitors.
AHEAD improves financial market efficiency through ad-hoc auctions.
We present a parallel algorithm that computes the ask and bid prices of an American option when proportional transaction costs apply to the trading of the underlying asset. The algorithm computes the prices on recombining binomial trees, and is designed for modern multi-core processors. Although parallel option pricing…
TLMG4Eth combines language and graph models for Ethereum fraud detection.
This paper concerns the numerical solution of the finite-horizon Optimal Investment problem with transaction costs under Potential Utility. The problem is initially posed in terms of an evolutive HJB equation with gradient constraints. In Finite-Horizon Optimal Investment with Transaction Costs: A Parabolic Double Obst…
Motivated by applications to bond markets, we propose a multivariate framework for discrete time financial markets with proportional transaction costs and a countable infinite number of tradable assets. We show that the no-arbitrage of second kind property (NA2 in short), recently introduced by Rasonyi for finite-dimen…
This research develops heuristics to detect CoinJoin transactions on Bitcoin blockchain.
A standing assumption in the literature on proportional transaction costs is efficient friction. Together with robust no free lunch with vanishing risk, it rules out strategies of infinite variation, as they usually appear in frictionless markets. In this paper, we show how the models with and without transaction costs…

Deep Hedging learns risk-neutral vol dynamics for option pricing.
Risk-averse reinforcement learning optimizes option hedging.
Investment strategy optimized in markets with transaction costs and search delays.
New model optimizes portfolios with realistic transaction costs.
Paper analyzes liquidity for everlasting options in DeFi, offering strategies to reduce costs.
This paper studies arbitrage pricing theory in financial markets with implicit transaction costs. We extend the existing theory to include the more realistic possibility that the price at which the investors trade is dependent on the traded volume. The investors in the market always buy at the ask and sell at the bid p…
New heuristic selects fewer assets for efficient portfolios, reducing costs.
Transaction costs appear in financial markets in more than one form. There are several results in the literature on small proportional transaction cost and not that many on fixed transaction cost. In the present work, we heuristically study the effect of both types of transaction cost by focusing on a portfolio optimiz…
