Published / Preprint: How Non-linearity will Transform Information Systems. (arXiv:1208.5316v1 [cs.CE])

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 05:31 PM PDT

One 'problem' with the 21st century world, particularly the economic and business worlds, is the phenomenal and increasing number of interconnections between economic agents (consumers, firms, banks, markets, national economies). This implies that such agents are all interacting and consequently giving raise to enormous degrees of non-linearity, a.k.a. complexity. Complexity often brings with it...

Published / Preprint: Wrong-way risk in credit and funding valuation adjustments. (arXiv:1208.5382v1 [q-fin.PR])

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 05:31 PM PDT

Wrong-way risk in counterparty and funding exposures is most dramatic in the situations of systemic crises and tails events. A consistent model of wrong-way risk (WWR) is developed here with the probability-weighted addition of tail events to the calculation of credit valuation and funding valuation adjustments (CVA and FVA). This new practical model quantifies the tail risks in the pricing of...

Published / Preprint: Portfolio optimization with insider's initial information and counterparty risk. (arXiv:1208.5398v1 [q-fin.PR])

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 05:31 PM PDT

We study the gain of an insider having private information which concerns the default risk of a counterparty. More precisely, the default time \tau is modelled as the first time a stochastic process hits a random barrier L. The insider knows this barrier (as it can be the case for example for the manager of the counterparty), whereas standard investors only observe its value at the default...

Published / Preprint: Exploring complex networks via topological embedding on surfaces. (arXiv:1107.3456v2 [cond-mat.other] UPDATED)

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 05:31 PM PDT

We demonstrate that graphs embedded on surfaces are a powerful and practical tool to generate, characterize and simulate networks with a broad range of properties. Remarkably, the study of topologically embedded graphs is non-restrictive because any network can be embedded on a surface with sufficiently high genus. The local properties of the network are affected by the surface genus which, for...

Blog Post: Falkenblog: Buying Book Reviews

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 05:28 PM PDT

A guy figured out an interesting market niche: book reviews.In the fall of 2010, Mr. Rutherford started a Web site, GettingBookReviews.com. At first, he advertised that he would review a book for $99. But some clients wanted a chorus proclaiming their excellence. So, for $499, Mr. Rutherford would do 20 online reviews. A few people needed a whole orchestra. For $999, he would do 50. There...
