Roots and effects of financial misperception in a stochastic dominance framework

TL;DR: In this paper, a new definition for stochastic dominance, which presents asymmetric property, is introduced and theoretical and numerical results are provided showing how investors distort and make questionable investment choices, which are explained in terms of framing and representative effects.

Multicriterion Analysis Under Uncertainty: The Approach of Outranking Synthesis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the problem of outranking relations in the context of multicriterion analysis under uncertainty, and propose procedures based on the outranking relation to build a set of relations in a context of uncertainty.

Portfolio Choice Models Based on Second-Order Stochastic Dominance Measures: An Overview and a Computational Study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare two approaches, the unscaled model of Roman et al. (Mathematical Programming Series B 108: 541-569, 2006) and the scaled model of Fabian et al (Quantitative Finance 2010) to find a portfolio whose return distribution dominates the index distribution to the largest possible extent.

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior

TL;DR: Theory of games and economic behavior as mentioned in this paper is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based, and it has been widely used to analyze a host of real-world phenomena from arms races to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations.

Ordered Families of Distributions

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison is made of several definitions of ordered sets of distributions, some of which were introduced earlier by the author [7], [8] and by Rubin [10], and the results are applied to obtaining tests that give a certain guaranteed power with a minimum number of observations.

Dynamic Inventory Policy with Varying Stochastic Demands

TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic inventory model is formulated in which the demand distributions may change from period to period, and the optimal policy at each stage is characterized by a single critical number which also could vary in successive periods.
