Is fairness intuitive? An experiment accounting for subjective utility differences under time pressure

AL Merkel, J Lohse - Experimental Economics, 2019 - Springer
Evidence from response time studies and time pressure experiments has led several
authors to conclude that “fairness is intuitive”. In light of conflicting findings, we provide …

Distributed sequential detection for Gaussian shift-in-mean hypothesis testing

AK Sahu, S Kar - IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper studies the problem of sequential Gaussian shift-in-mean hypothesis testing in a
distributed multi-agent network. A sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) type algorithm in a …

First passage time and mean exit time for switching Brownian motion

J Tong, R Wu, Q Zhang, Z Zhang… - Stochastics and Dynamics, 2023 - World Scientific
In this paper, we consider some properties of switching Brownian motion. Combining the
analytic method and probabilistic method, some explicit expressions of density functions, the …

First-passage times of regime switching models

P Hieber - Statistics & Probability Letters, 2014 - Elsevier
The probability of a stochastic process to first breach an upper and/or a lower level is an
important quantity for optimal control and risk management. We present those probabilities …

Extracting implied volatilities from bank bonds

ML Bianchi, GL Tassinari - Quantitative Finance, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
In this work, we explore the information content of senior, subordinated and additional tier 1

First exit-time analysis for an approximate Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model with stationary self-decomposable variance process

S Awasthi, I SenGupta - arxiv preprint arxiv:2006.07167, 2020 - arxiv.org
In this paper, an approximate version of the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model, driven
by a Brownian motion and a L\'evy subordinator, is formulated. The first-exit time of the log …

Finite mixture approximation of CARMA (p, q) models

L Mercuri, A Perchiazzo, E Rroji - SIAM Journal on Financial Mathematics, 2021 - SIAM
In this paper we show how to approximate the transition density of a CARMA (p, q) model
driven by a time-changed Brownian motion based on the Gauss--Laguerre quadrature. This …
