This paper deals with the problem of estimating the level sets of an unknown distribution function $F$. A plug-in approach is followed. That is, given a consistent estimator $F_n$ of $F$, we estimate the level sets of $F$ by the level sets of $F_n$. In our setting no compactness property is a...

We propose a new method of tail analysis for data featuring a high degree of leptokurtosis. Heavy tails can typically be found in financial series, like for example, the stock returns or durations between arrivals of trades. In our framework, the shape of tails can be assessed by fitting some...

We consider the problem of estimating quantile regression coefficients in errors-in-variables models. When the error variables for both the response and the manifest variables have a joint distribution that is spherically symmetric but otherwise unknown, the regression quantile estimates based...

Assuming that cards are dealt with replacement from a single deck and that each of Player and Banker sees the total of his own two-card hand but not its composition, baccara is a 2 . 288 matrix game, which was solved by Kemeny and Snell in 1957. Assuming that cards are dealt without replacement...

We propose a new method to estimate the empirical pricing kernel based on option data. We estimate the pricing kernel …-neutral density is approximated by a weighted kernel density estimator with varying unknown weights for di erent observations, and the … subjective density is approximated by a kernel density estimator with equal weights. We represent the European call option price …

-assignment optimization problems. It is known that for permutation games the bargaining set and the core coincide, consequently, the kernel is … a subset of the core. We prove that for permutation games the kernel is contained in the least core, even if the latter … game is also an example (of minimum size) for a game with a non-convex kernel. …
