This paper presents a general theory that works out the relation between coherent risk measures, valuation bounds, and certain classes of portfolio optimization problems. It is economically general in the sense that it works for any cash stream spaces, be it in dynamic trading settings, one-step...

The paper proposes a new approach to the mean–variance-hedging problem under transaction costs. This approach is based on the idea of dividing the gain functional into two parts. One part representing the gains resulting from a pure buying strategy, and the other part representing the gains...

In this note, we consider a general discrete time ¯nancial market with pro- portional transaction costs as in Kabanov and Stricker [4], Kabanov et al. [5], Kabanov et al. [6] and Schachermayer [10]. We provide a dual formulation for the set of initial endowments which allow to super-hedge some...
