TLDR
In this paper, the authors considered the continuous-time consumption-portfolio problem for an individual whose income is generated by capital gains on investments in assets with prices assumed to satisfy the geometric Brownian motion hypothesis, which implies that asset prices are stationary and lognormally distributed.

Risk Management with Benchmarking

TL;DR: In this article, a risk-averse portfolio manager optimally under- or overperforms a target benchmark under different economic conditions, depending on his attitude towards risk and choice of the benchmark.

Optimal lifetime consumption-portfolio strategies under trading constraints and generalized recursive preferences

TL;DR: In this paper, the lifetime consumption-portfolio problem in a competitive securities market with essentially arbitrary continuous price dynamics, and convex trading constraints (e.g., incomplete markets and short-sale constraints) is considered, and first-order conditions of optimality are derived, based on a preference independent notion of constrained state pricing.

Dynamic Asset Allocation with Event Risk

TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the implications of jumps in prices and volatility on investment strategies and provide analytical solutions to the optimal portfolio problem using the event-risk framework of Duffie, Pan, and Singleton.

Finite-Horizon Optimal Investment with Transaction Costs: A Parabolic Double Obstacle Problem

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal investment problem of a CRRA investor who faces proportional transaction costs and finite time horizon was studied using a partial differential equation approach, and it was shown that the problem is equivalent to a parabolic double obstacle problem involving two free boundaries that correspond to the optimal buying and selling policies.

Option Pricing with Differential Interest Rates

TL;DR: In this paper, the classic option pricing model is generalized to a more realistic, imperfect, dynamically incomplete capital market with different interest rates for borrowing and for lending and a return differential between long and short positions in stock.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection under Uncertainty: The Continuous-Time Case

TL;DR: In this paper, the combined problem of optimal portfolio selection and consumption rules for an individual in a continuous-time model was examined, where his income is generated by returns on assets and these returns or instantaneous "growth rates" are stochastic.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection By Dynamic Stochastic Programming

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal consumption-investment problem for an investor whose utility for consumption over time is a discounted sum of single-period utilities, with the latter being constant over time and exhibiting constant relative risk aversion (power-law functions or logarithmic functions), is discussed.
