Among the celebrated researchers are Harry Markowitz and William Ziemba. These titans devoted their working years to developing quantitative models and adapting the models to changes in financial markets and investor attitudes. This paper presents a general lens through which the Markowitz mean-variance model and the Ziemba capital growth model can be viewed. This lens is risk-sensitive stochastic control. The optimal control approach places the expected utility, mean-variance, and capital growth models in a common setting to elucidate their connection. In particular, benchmarking and risk factors, two standard refinements to control risk, are seamlessly incorporated into the stochastic control model. The solution to the risk-sensitive control problem isolates the effect of benchmarks and factors to provide insights into model-based portfolios.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"346 1","pages":"181 - 216"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143638513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we adopt the factor models, especially matrix factor models in various forms, to construct new statistical factors that explain the variation of stock returns. Furthermore, we evaluate the contribution of these statistical factors beyond the existing factors available in the asset pricing literature. To demonstrate the power of the new factors, U.S. monthly stock data are analyzed, and the partial <i>F</i> test and double selection LASSO method are conducted. The results show that the new statistical factors bring additional information and add explanatory power in asset pricing.

Each arriving customer belongs to one of several classes. Upon arrival, a customer either joins an existing queue for their class or initiates a new queue if they are the first of their class to arrive. Customers from the class with the most senior member are served together as a batch, with the service time remaining constant regardless of the batch size. This service model is found in applications like advanced elevator systems and on-demand shared mobility, where passengers heading to the same destination can share a ride. However, in many real-world scenarios, the vehicle capacities are small and constraining, which calls for a deeper exploration of the Israeli queue with a capacitated server (IQCS). In this paper, we formally define the IQCS and address the challenges of creating a mathematically tractable model to represent it. To approximate the IQCS, we develop a quasi-birth-death process and derive approximations for key performance measures. To validate our approach, we implement a simulation model and use it to compare the IQCS, the approximate model, and the original Israeli Queue. Our results across various scenarios demonstrate the accuracy of the approximate model. Nonetheless, the presence of a remaining gap underscores the ongoing challenge of precisely and efficiently modeling the IQCS, posing an open question for the research community.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8215,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Operations Research","volume":"344 1","pages":"267 - 285"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10479-024-06298-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142912808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The suggested approach is applied to the 2022 FIFA World Cup to uncover how its design could have been improved by changing group labelling (a reform that has received no attention before) and the schedule of group matches. Scheduling is found to be a surprisingly weak intervention compared to previous results on the risk of collusion in a group. The probability of tanking, which is disturbingly high around 25%, cannot be reduced by more than 3 percentage points via these policies.

Various types of vehicles with differing capacities, transportation speeds, and costs are studied in order to achieve a suitable balance between cost and speed of delivering commodities.
