Furthermore, we establish two additional no-arbitrage conditions, one for European-style puts and one for calls, which are tighter than the ones commonly reported in current literature. All of our results are based on static arbitrage arguments and have important implications for constructing arbitrage-free call or put option surfaces. In particular, we point out that the commonly stated conditions required for a call option surface are not always sufficient to generate an arbitrage-free call option surface.","PeriodicalId":433287,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Derivatives & Hedge Funds","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123574838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Turnover reduction can be modeled using the correlation structure of the alpha streams. As more and more alphas are added, generally turnover reduces. In this note, we use a factor model approach to address the question of whether the turnover goes to zero or a finite limit as the number of alphas N goes to infinity. We argue that the limiting turnover value is determined by the number of alpha clusters F, not the number of alphas N. This limiting value behaves according to the ‘power law’ ∼F−3/2. So, to achieve zero limiting turnover, the number of alpha clusters must go to infinity along with the number of alphas. We further argue on general grounds that, if the number of underlying tradable instruments is finite, then the turnover cannot go to zero, which implies that the number of alpha clusters also appears to be finite.","PeriodicalId":433287,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Derivatives & Hedge Funds","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124982537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
