The game of End-Nim.
We consider the Implicit Generalized Order Complementarity Problem and we use this mathematical model to study a nonlinear and conceptual generalization of Leontief's input-output economic model. We suppose that the economic system works with several technologies and the considered functions are not necessarily increasing.
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 30C25, 30C45.K is the exact Koebe domain for the class of functions considered here.
Certain financial market strategies are known to exhibit a hysteretic structure similar to the memory observed in plasticity, ferromagnetism, or magnetostriction. The main difference is that in financial markets, the spontaneous occurrence of discontinuities in the time evolution has to be taken into account. We show that one particular market model considered here admits a representation in terms of Prandtl-Ishlinskii hysteresis operators, which are extended in order to include possible discontinuities...
This study provides a proof that the limit of a distance-based inconsistency reduction process is a matrix induced by the vector of geometric means of rows when a distance-based inconsistent pairwise comparisons matrix is transformed into a consistent PC matrix by stepwise inconsistency reduction in triads. The distance-based inconsistency indicator was defined by Koczkodaj (1993) for pairwise comparisons. Its convergence was analyzed in 1996 (regretfully, with an incomplete proof) and finally completed...
The shortfall risk minimization problem for the investor who hedges a contingent claim is studied. It is shown that in case the nonnegativity of the final wealth is not imposed, the optimal strategy in a finite market model is obtained by super-hedging a contingent claim connected with a martingale measure which is a solution of an auxiliary maximization problem.
