We examine the diversification benefits of cryptocurrency asset categories. To mitigate effects estimation risk, we employ Bayes-Stein model with no short-selling and variance-based constraints. estimate inputs using lasso regression elastic net regression, employing shrunk Wishart stochastic volatility Gaussian random projection. consider nine categories, find that all but two provide signific...

Opaque pricing has become popular in service pricing as it allows firms to sell their differentiated products at higher prices to regular brand loyal customers while simultaneously selling to non loyal customers a...

We consider the residential energy storage management system with integrated renewable generation, with the availability of bidirectional energy flow from and to the grid thorough buying and selling. We propose a real-time bidirectional energy control algorithm, aiming to minimize the net system cost, due to energy buying and selling and battery deterioration and inefficiency from storage activ...

One dimensional stylized model taking into account spatial activity of firms with uniformly distributed customers is proposed. The spatial selling area of each firm is defined by a short interval cut out from selling space (large interval). In this representation, the firm size is directly associated with the size of its selling interval. The recursive synchronous dynamics of economic evolution...
