Este artículo visibiliza el uso que se le puede dar a una serie de proyectos de Humanidades Digitales, como son las bases de datos de Rolecall, DICAT y CATCOM o la biblioteca digital EMOTHE, a la hora de analizar las dinámicas escenográficas en el teatro español de finales del siglo XVI y principios del siglo XVII, coincidiendo con las déc…[Read more]

The Issue of Free Will – Stephen Cave points out that the Free Will “research and its implications are not new. What is new, though, is the spread of free-will skepticism beyond the laboratories and into the mainstream. Determinism, to one degree or another, is gaining popular currency. The skeptics are in ascendance.” (There’s No Such Thing as Fr…[Read more]

We present a model for pricing an exotic swap where one party receives a fixed amount and makes a series of variable payments at the end of each pre-defined calculation period. The variable payments can be modeled as Asian put option payoffs on the weighted sum of two respective commodity basket levels. Furthermore, each basket level consists of a…[Read more]

A model is present for pricing an Equity Asian Swap. One leg of the swap pays the return from a monthly average of the S&P TSE60 index less a constant strike. The payment from the other leg is similarly defined for a stock. The payments are tied to notional amounts that are specified according to two pre-determined monthly schedules. Most of the…[Read more]

With the climate of Brexit, xenophobia and white supremacy on the rise, health and safety of Black and Global Majority people under threat during the spread of Covid in the UK and elsewhere, a discussion of colonialism, migration, borders, and equality – in the classrooms and outside – is more pertinent than ever. Situating the ongoing Dec…[Read more]

Ang Academic Materialist na hinimok ng Extreme Escapism ng Materialist Psychologists at Tumpak na “Mar’s Prophecy” ni Jung – kaya Recently Proven True.
Ang tanong ng isang mamamahayag kay Carl Jung: Sa palagay mo ba, sa loob ng dalawampung taon, sinuman ang magmamalasakit sa diwa ng mga simbolo, ganap sa panahon ng mga paglalakbay sa pagitan ng…[Read more]

Tulad ng naobserbahan ng mga may-akda ng artikulong “Beyond the Group Mind: A Quantitative Review of the Interindividual–Intergroup Discontinuity Effect” na inilathala sa Psychological Bulletin, Tinatayang sa huling dekada pa lamang ng ikadalawampu siglo, ang mga nakamamatay na digmaan ng mga lugar tulad ng Rwanda, Bosnia, at Ethiopia ay kumitil n…[Read more]

A variance/volatility swap is an instrument that allows explicit exposure to the realized variance/volatility of an index, stock, etc., without exposure to other risks commonly encountered with derivatives: delta, gamma, etc.

We review the equity forward and futures pricing models. Consider an index level, I, at a future time, T. With respect to I, we calculate 1) the forward price, 2) the futures price, and 3) delta.

A valuation model is presented to calculate price, hedge ratio, and implied volatility for forward starting European calls and puts. The model focuses on the numerical accuracy of the implementation.

The model calculates numbers that characterize the effect of adding an extra instrument to a portfolio of loan commitments. To be useful, these numbers should be additive with respect to the facilities making up the portfolio, so that their total would have the same meaning for the portfolio as each individual number has for the respective…[Read more]

La “profecía de Mar” de Jung: el materialismo académico impulsado por el escapismo extremo de los psicólogos materialistas
Pregunta de un periodista a Carl Jung: ¿Cree que, dentro de veinte años, a alguien le importará el espíritu de los símbolos, de lleno en la era de los viajes interplanetarios, con los Sputniks, los Gagarin y los Shephar…[Read more]

Pourquoi un sophisme est-il important ? Bouddha dit que « nous devenons ce que nous pensons ». Hier, je parlais à un diplômé philippin (je séjourne actuellement à Gneral Santos, aux Philippines). J’ai évoqué le principal argument martérialiste tel qu’expliqué par MIller et Thompson dans un article publié sur le site Web du NIH – Pubmed – qui affir…[Read more]

As the prominent social psychologists, Baumeister and Leary, point out, “Groups can share food, provide mates, and help care for offspring (including orphans). Some survival tasks such as hunting large animals or maintaining defensive vigilance against predatory enemies, are best accomplished by group cooperation…. Competition for limited res…[Read more]

Equity value at risk (VaR) model requires implied volatilities with respect to various indices and maturities, which range from three months to five years. A model is presented for generating a term-structure of implied equity index volatilities for use in calculating VaR.

Since 2016, the academic narrative emerging from the Zora Neale Hurston Festival of the Arts and Humanities in Eatonville, Florida, has increasingly relied on a public scholarship model to bridge the gap between institutional practice and community knowledge. Inspired by Zora Neale Hurston’s legacy as an interdisciplinary scholar, these a…[Read more]

A model is used to price a derivative whose payoff depends on returns over N periods on a shrinking basket of originally N assets. Each period, the worst return is added to the cumulative sum after being capped and floored, and the corresponding asset removed from the basket (hence a shrinking basket). The cap and floor rates are given for each…[Read more]
