This paper studies the utility maximization problem on the terminal wealth with both random endowments and proportional transaction costs. To deal with unbounded random payoffs from some illiquid claims, we propose to work with the acceptable portfolios defined via the consistent price system...

This paper studies the infinite horizon optimal consumption with a path-dependent reference under the exponential utility. The performance is measured by the difference between the non-negative consumption rate and a fraction of the historical consumption maximum. The consumption running maximum...

This paper studies competitions with rank-based reward among a large number of teams. Within each sizable team, we consider a mean-field contribution game in which each team member contributes to the jump intensity of a common Poisson project process; across all teams, a mean field competition...

Greening the industrial parks is one of China's attempts to explore sustainable development for the industrial sector. In this paper, a non-desired output and non-radial DEA model was firstly proposed for measuring a number of industrial parks’ green development performance. We use the panel...

This paper studies a life-cycle optimal portfolio-consumption problem when the consumption performance is measured by a shortfall aversion preference subjecting to an additional drawdown constraint on consumption rate. Meanwhile, the agent also dynamically chooses her life insurance premium to...

This paper studies the utility maximization problem on the terminal wealth with both random endowments and proportional transaction costs. To deal with unbounded random payoffs from some illiquid claims, we propose to work with the acceptable portfolios defined via the consistent price system...

We consider a notion of weak no arbitrage condition commonly known as Robust No Unbounded Profit with Bounded Risk (RNUPBR) in the context of continuous time markets with small proportional transaction costs. We show that the RNUPBR condition on terminal liquidation value holds if and only if...

The purpose of this article is to propose a more accurate methodology and valuation as to the consumer welfare effect of reverse exclusionary settlements in the context of patent litigation cases between brand and generic pharmaceutical firms. In contrast to the FTC Findings that reverse...
