The St. Petersburg Paradox
The classical St. Petersburg Paradox is discussed in terms of doubling strategies. It is claimed that what was originally thought of as a \paradox" can hardly be considered as very surprising today, but viewed in terms of doubling strategies, we get some results that look paradoxical, at least to the practically oriented investor.
متن کاملSt. Petersburg 2003: An alternating sum of zero-sum subset numbers
In this note we will solve two problems in combinatorial number theory using an easy fact on …nite di¤erences. We start with a few preliminaries: For any assertion A, we denote by [A] the Boolean value of the assertion A (that is, [A] = 1, if A is true; 0, if A is false). It is then clear that if B is a set, and A (X) is an assertion for every subset X of B, then X XB [A (X)] = jfX B j A (X) ho...
متن کاملAsymptotic Distribution for the Sum and Maximum of Gaussian Processes
Previous work on the joint asymptotic distribution of the sum and maxima of Gaussian processes is extended here. In particular, it is shown that for a stationary sequence of standard normal random variables with correlation function r, the condition r(n) log n = o(1) as n →∞ suffices to establish the asymptotic independence of the sum and maximum.
متن کاملSt. Petersburg Portfolio Games
We investigate the performance of the constantly rebalanced portfolios, when the random vectors of the market process {Xi} are independent, and each of them distributed as (X,X, . . . ,X, 1), d ≥ 1, where X,X, . . . ,X are nonnegative iid random variables. Under general conditions we show that the optimal strategy is the uniform: (1/d, . . . , 1/d, 0), at least for d large enough. In case of St...
متن کاملOn the rate of convergence of the St. Petersburg game
We investigate the repeated and sequential portfolio St.Petersburg games. For the repeated St.Petersburg game, we show an upper bound on the tail distribution, which implies a strong law for a truncation. Moreover, we consider the problem of limit distribution. For the sequential portfolio St.Petersburg game, we obtain tight asymptotic results for the growth rate of the game.
