Financial options typically incorporate times of exercise. Alternatively, they embody set-up costs or indivisibilities … here that integrality constraints can often be relaxed. In fact, simple mathematical programming, aimed at arbitrage or …

In this paper we argue that in realistically calibrated two period general equilibrium models with incomplete markets CAPM-pricing provides a good benchmark for equilibrium prices even when agents are not mean-variance optimizers and returns are not normally distributed. We numerically...

Local convergence results for adaptive learning of stochastic steady states in nonlinear models are extended to the case where the exogenous observable variables follow a ?nite Markov chain. The stability conditions for the corresponding nonstochastic model and its steady states yield...

The paper discusses the role of memory in asset pricing models with heterogeneous beliefs. In particular, we were interested in how memory in the fitness measure affects stability of evolutionary adaptive systems and survival of technical trading. In order to obtain an insight into this matter...

This note proves existence of a unique equilibrium in a Lucas (1978) economy when the utility function displays constant relative risk aversion and log dividends follow a normally distributed AR(1) process with positive auto-correlation. In particular, the note provides restrictions on the...

This paper develops a dynamic model in which financially constrained agents search for markets which are subject to decreasing returns to scale. In equilibrium, agents only invest in markets with total capital below an endogenous threshold that depends on the equilibrium distribution of capital...

To analyze the economic significance of pricing errors of stock index options, a system of linear inequalities is … developed which completely characterizes all risk arbitrage opportunities which arise if a well-behaved pricing kernel does not … exist. The Stochastic Arbitrage system can account for market imperfections in the form of transactions costs and general …

The aim of this work is to extend the classical capital growth theory pertaining to frictionless financial markets to models taking into account various kinds of frictions, including transaction costs and portfolio constraints. A natural generalization of the notion of a benchmark investment...
