Limit Theorem for a Modified Leland Hedging Strategy under Constant Transaction Costs rate
No full textWe study the Leland model for hedging portfolios in the presence of a constant proportional transaction costs coefficient. The modified Leland's strategy recently defined by the second author, contrarily to the classical one, ensures the asymptotic replication of a large class of payoff. In this setting, we prove a limit theorem for the deviation between the real portfolio and the payoff. As Pergamenshchikov did in the framework of the usual Leland's strategy, we identify the rate of convergence and the associated limit distribution. This rate turns out to be improved using the modified strategy and non periodic revision dates.Asymptotic hedging ; Leland-Lott strategy ; Transaction costs ; Martingale limit theorem.

Acylophorus micans Lott, new species
No full text<i>Acylophorus micans</i> Lott, new species <p>(Figs 12, 62, 88, 120)</p> <p> <b>Description.</b> Length 4.5– 5mm. Head and elytra black. Pronotum dark brown. Abdominal tergites dark brown and iridescent. Appendages all pale, last segment of maxillary palpi sometimes darker.</p> <p>Head of average size (pronotum 1.7x wider than head), 1.1x wider than long with rounded well developed temples and pigmented area produced well in front of antennal insertion (Fig. 12). Eyes relatively small. Dorsal surface of head covered with dense micro-punctures. Dense pale pubescence behind eyes. Two pairs of interocular setae arising from foveate punctures much closer to eyes than each other. Four postocular setae visible on each side, additional seta on hind margin of eye absent. Maxillary palpi with terminal segment pubescent, markedly asymmetric, longer than glabrous penultimate segment which is broadly triangular (Fig. 62). First segment of antenna as long as next six. Segments I to II elongate, IV to X transverse (Fig. 88).</p> <p>Pronotum slightly transverse (1.2x wider than long) with sides well rounded, widest in basal half, covered with dense micro-punctures. One pair of dorsal setae and one pair of lateral setae. Marginal setae long. Elytra transverse (1.7x wider than long) with close, bright yellow pubescence arising from asperate punctures finer. Apical fringe of bristles longer than pubescence on other parts of the elytra. Pubescence on abdominal tergites long arising from asperate punctures that are stronger and sparser than on elytra. Abdomen appears wide because of overall small body size.</p> <p>Apex of sternite IX broadly rounded. Paramere bilobed, each lobe twisted round side margin of median lobe, pegs confusedly arranged along inner half, basal lip absent (Fig. 120). Median lobe of aedeagus not much longer than paramere.</p> <p> <b>Type material. Holotype</b> 3: “ Ivory Coast 7–17km. W. Abidjan I-63 / Coll. W.L. Brown Jr. leg. / HOLOTYPE <i>Acylophorus micans</i> <b>sp. n.</b> 3 det. DA Lott, 2009” (FMNH). <b>Paratypes</b> 1Ƥ: same data as holotype; 131Ƥ (mounted on same card): “Mts. De Cristal Gabon / gabonensis Fvl. / R.I.Sc.N.B. 17.479 Coll. et det. A. Fauvel / PARATYPE <i>Acylophorus micans</i> <b>sp. n.</b> 3 det. DA Lott, 2009” (IRSNB); 2: “Loango Gabon / Coll. et det. A.

Note that Fauvel gave this species the name <i>gabonensis</i> on his specimen labels, but he never published a description.</p> <p> <b>Further material examined. CAMEROON</b>: Missellele near Mt Cameroon, F Zumpt, 1936, 1Ƥ (FMNH).</p> <p> <b>Distribution and bionomics.</b> Known so far from Côte d’Ivoire, Cameroon and Gabon (Fig. 143). There are no data on habitat.</p> <p> <b>Comparative notes.</b> Somewhat similar to <i>A. densipennis</i> by virtue of the bright yellow pubescence on the elytra, but smaller in overall size and with relatively small eyes and long apical bristles on the elytra. The aedeagus is also completely different. Much smaller than other species in the group with small eyes. <b>Etymology.</b> The specific name is a present participle meaning “glittering” and refers to the iridescent abdomen.</p>Published as part of <i>Lott, Derek A., 2010, The species of Acylophorus Nordmann (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Staphylininae) in continental sub-Saharan Africa, pp. 1-51 in Zootaxa 2402</i> on pages 19-20, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/275907">10.5281/zenodo.275907</a>
The non-commutative standard model
No full textIn this work aspects of the classical Connes-Lott non-commutative standard model are examined. In particular the relationship between the chiral structure of the standard model and the condition of Poincaré Duality is investigated. Then the natural prediction of an additional force in the non-commutative standard model is explained and the consequences calculated. Finally the attempts at grand unification within the non-commutative framework are reviewed and extended
