Purpose – The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical model that can be used to forecast the number of individuals who enter the library as well as the number of patrons that seek assistance at the reference desk of the library. An accurate estimate of demand at the reference desk...

This paper addresses the optimal rebalancing problem of a long-short portfolio with high net asset value under trading impact losses. The fund manager may employ leveraging as a tool to increase portfolio returns. However, to mitigate potential leverage risks, frequent rebalancing may become...

This paper analyzes the strategy that minimizes the initial cost of replicating a contingent claim in a market with transactions costs and trading constraints. The linear programming and two-stage backward recursive models developed are applicable to the replication of convex as well as...
