This papaer formulates a tenant management problem for a commercial retail real estate such as shopping center, provides an analytical framework for deriving the probability distribution of the sum of a discounted cash flow stochastically generated through the tenant management and finds an...

Purpose – In June of 2001, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) and Tokyo Gas Supply Company (TGSC) made a zero-cost risk swap contract on the average temperature of August and September of 2001 in Tokyo for their adverse situations. This is an exchange of two options on the average...

Using a discrete time approach, this paper presents a no-arbitrage pricing formula for MBSs (mortgage-backed securities), and taking into the heterogeneity of a mortgage pool, proposes a specific model for MBS prices that describes the so-called burnout phenomenon of prepayments due to...

In his book (1993) Kariya proposed a government bond (GB) pricing model that simultaneously values individual fixed-coupon (non-defaultable) bonds of different coupon rates and maturities via a discount function approach, and Kariya and Tsuda (Financ Eng Japanese Mark 1:1–20, <CitationRef CitationID="CR11">1994</CitationRef>) verified...</citationref>

In this paper, we formulate a tenant management problem for retail properties, such as shopping centers, provide an analytical framework for deriving the probability distribution of the sum of discounted future cash flows stochastically generated through tenant management, and find an optimal...

In the class of multivariate exponential power distributions, we derive LBI (locally best invariant) tests for normality in the two cases: (i) mean vector [mu] is known and (ii) [mu] is unknown. In the case (i), the null and nonnull asymptotic distributions of the test statistic are derived. In...

In a general normal regression model, this paper first derives the LUB(least upper bound)for the covariance matrix of a GLSE relative to the applied to the (unrestricted) Zellner estimator in the N-equation SUR model and to the GLSE in a heteroscedastic model.
