In this paper we consider the estimation of the weights of optimal portfolios from the Bayesian point of view under the assumption that the conditional distribution of the logarithmic returns is normal. Using the standard priors for the mean vector and the covariance matrix, we derive the posterior distributions for the weights of the global minimum variance portfolio. Moreover, we reparameterize
Abstract in UndeterminedSwedish and French avoid placing focused constituents at the left periphery of sentences. This has previously been suggested to be due to phonological factors. Here, we develop this idea and argue that the reason for avoiding focus at the left edge in these languages is the existence of syntactically related prosodic prominences in the beginning of utterances. Initial focal
Policy documents are part of university’s positioning within national and globalized negotiations. Who is written in as belonging to academia, and how do we describe and ascribe belonging? Since 2011 Lund University has an integrated policy for gender equality, equal treatment and diversity work. With this text, I analyze this policy and related documents to understand which meanings are attached
The following article is an interpretation of a narrative in Theodoret of Cyrrhus’ collective biography about the history of the monks of Syria, the Philotheos historia. The most well-known saint of Theodoret’s own diocese was James of Cyrrhestica. His biography has a central place in the PH, but has not received as much attention as that of his name- sake James of Nisibis, or Symeon the Stylite.
Den indirekta miljöbelastningen uppströms och nedströms i livsmedelkedjan har ofta större miljöpåverkan än vad handeln är direkt ansvarig för. Helt avgörande är att livsmedelshandlare ställer krav på leverantörer genom att efterfråga miljömässigt och etiskt sunda varor samt förbättrar förpackning av sina egna varor. Energieffektivisering och avfallshantering är hittills bästa gren visar färsk fors
Protein networks drive numerous crucial processes in cells. One important component in their coordination is protein-protein interactions. Mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling substrates and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins in Arabidopsis were investigated with respect to their respective interactions. Novel MAPK substrates were screened for and tested for MAPK specific phosphoryla
This thesis describes a combinatorial approach to design and synthesis of three libraries of compounds, referred to as pilicides, designed to target periplasmic chaperones present in uropathogenic Escherichia coli bacteria that are the main cause of urinary tract infections. Periplasmic chaperones are required for assembly of adhesive organelles, i.e. pili, which recognize and bind to specific rec
An accelerator-based arrangement in which facilities using particle-induced X-rays and gamma-rays and scattered particles are included constitutes a very powerful analytical set-up especially when combined with adequate sampling techniques. In this paper, the designs of two major work environment investigations are described. In one of the investigations (in which 3000 multielemental analyses were
The contributions in this book have demonstrated that sociology of law is a rich and complex subject that contains a wide range of theoretical approaches which can be used to study law. There are however fundamental disagreements over how sociology of law should develop. In this chapter, we will review these debates, and examine the institutional obstacles which prevent it from developing in the s
Popular Abstract in Undetermined The thesis is written within the project Strengthening Legal Education in Vietnam.Well-known trademarks have been recognized as one of the most important types of trademark in the trademark system as reflected in both national law and in international treaties. The legal regime of well-known trademark protection has been continuously enhanced and developed over time due to the increasing importance of well-known trademarks becoming known to a worldwide public as well as develop
We have previously shown how it is possible to lower accident risk levels while at the same time increasing traffic flows with the aid of vehicular ad-hoc networks. In this paper, we extend the online traffic accident risk mitigation sys- tem to include link choice. We develop an algorithm that allows vehicles to choose road links that provide the current maximal utility, based on information rece
