Portfolio Selection Revisited in memory of Harry Markowitz

Authors: Alex Shkolnik, Alec Kercheval, Hubeyb Gurdogan, Lisa R. Goldberg, Haim Bar

Abstract: Throughout his life, Harry Markowitz considered how best to estimate security return and risk for mean-variance optimization. We show how recent developments can increase accuracy of risk estimates of large portfolios, leading to superior portfolio selection.

AMS Special Session: Loeb Measure after Fifty Years

The Special Session included fourteen research papers and a one-hour discussion session. Two of Robert Anderson's papers were included in the program:

"General Equilibrium Theory for Measure-Theoretic Economies," joint with Haosui Duanmu, M. Ali Khan, and Metin Uyanik.

"Existence of Berk-Nash equilibrium with infinite spaces," joint with Haosui Duanmu, Aniruddha Ghosh and M. Ali Khan.
