Nash equilibrium design and price-based coordination in hierarchical systems

Michał P. Karpowicz (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

This paper deals with the problem of designing Nash equilibrium points in noncooperative games in which agents anticipate values of Lagrange multipliers coordinating their payoff functions. The addressed model of agents' interactions, referred to as the price-anticipation game, is studied within the framework of coordination and mechanism design theory for hierarchical systems. Sufficient conditions are formulated for Nash implementation of a regular and isolated solution to a coordination problem....

Nash equilibrium for a multiobjective control problem related to wastewater management

Néstor García-Chan, Rafael Muñoz-Sola, Miguel Ernesto Vázquez-Méndez (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper is concerned with mathematical modelling in the management of a wastewater treatment system. The problem is formulated as looking for a Nash equilibrium of a multiobjective pointwise control problem of a parabolic equation. Existence of solution is proved and a first order optimality system is obtained. Moreover, a numerical method to solve this system is detailed and numerical results are shown in a realistic situation posed in the estuary of Vigo (Spain).


Newsboy Problem: Viability of Optimal Initial Selling Price and Ordering Policies in the Presence of Exogenous Price Decline and Random Lead Time

Ningombam Sanjib Meitei, Snigdha Banerjee (2013)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Analysis of empirical sales data lead us to consider newsboy model for four practical market conditions arising from the presence/absence of stochastic lead time and exogenous linear temporal decline in selling price when distribution of the stochastic demand depends upon initial selling price. Viability of the solutions is discussed for three strategies of obtaining optimal initial selling price and/or ordering quantity. Numerical studies are conducted to assess the effects of lead time and price...

Nonexpansive maps and option pricing theory

Vassili N. Kolokoltsov (1998)

Kybernetika

The famous Black–Sholes (BS) and Cox–Ross–Rubinstein (CRR) formulas are basic results in the modern theory of option pricing in financial mathematics. They are usually deduced by means of stochastic analysis; various generalisations of these formulas were proposed using more sophisticated stochastic models for common stocks pricing evolution. In this paper we develop systematically a deterministic approach to the option pricing that leads to a different type of generalisations of BS and CRR formulas...

Nonstandard Finite Difference Schemes with Application to Finance: Option Pricing

Milev, Mariyan, Tagliani, Aldo (2010)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 65M06, 65M12.The paper is devoted to pricing options characterized by discontinuities in the initial conditions of the respective Black-Scholes partial differential equation. Finite difference schemes are examined to highlight how discontinuities can generate numerical drawbacks such as spurious oscillations. We analyze the drawbacks of the Crank-Nicolson scheme that is most frequently used numerical method in Finance because of its second order accuracy....

Note sur le calcul de la probabilité des paradoxes du vote

Sven Berg, Dominique Lepelley (1992)

Mathématiques et Sciences Humaines

De nombreux travaux se sont efforcés au cours des années récentes de calculer la probabilité des paradoxes ou des difficultés que la théorie des choix collectifs a mis en évidence. On passe en revue dans cette note les principaux modèles de calcul utilisés dans ces travaux. On applique en outre l'un des modèles présentés au calcul de la probabilité de quelques paradoxes bien connus de la théorie du vote.
