21. Brand Architecture from Above : Understanding the Customer Disconnect
Sammanfattning : Global business is transforming. Information technology in general, and the Internet specifically, has globalized business and empowered the consumer with more information and choice than ever before. Consequently, academic research into brand portfolios and brand architecture is faced with new challenges to reflect this changing reality. LÄS MER
22. Empirical studies of portfolio choice and asset prices
Sammanfattning : This thesis contains empirical studies of portfolio choice and asset prices. The first two chapters deal with incorporating labor supply into models traditionally only focusing on consumption. Can the risk premium on stocks be better understood when taking labor supply into account? This is the topic of the first chapter. LÄS MER
23. Aspects of cash-flow valuation
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of five papers. In the first two papers we consider a general approach to cash flow valuation, focusing on dynamic properties of the value of a stream of cash flows. The third paper discusses immunization theory, where old results are shown to hold in general deterministic models, but often fail to be true in stochastic models. LÄS MER
24. Contributions to linear discriminant analysis with applications to growth curves
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns contributions to linear discriminant analysis with applications to growth curves.Firstly, we present the linear discriminant function coefficients in a stochastic representation using random variables from the standard univariate distributions. LÄS MER
25. Contributions to the Stochastic Maximum Principle
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers treating the maximum principle for stochastic control problems. In the first paper we study the optimal control of a class of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) of mean-field type, where the coefficients are allowed to depend on the law of the process.
