## A New Coherent Multivariate Average-Value-at-Risk

A new multivariate performance measure Average-Value-at-Risk, mAVaR αevaluating the sum of N risky assets composing the portfolio of an investor with respect to riskN-dimensional risk level vectorαis proposed. We show that the proposed operator satisfies the four axioms of a coherent risk measure, while reducing to the one variableAverage-Value-at-RiskAVaR, in caseN= 1. In that respect, … Read more

## Controlled Markov Decision Processes with AVaR Criteria for Unbounded Costs

In this paper, we consider the control problem with the Average-Value-at-Risk (AVaR) criteria of the possibly unbounded L 1 -costs in infinite horizon on a Markov Decision Process (MDP). With a suitable state aggregation and by choosing a priori a global variable s heuristically, we show that there exist optimal policies for the infinite horizon … Read more

## Controlled Markov Chains with AVaR Criteria for Unbounded Costs

In this paper, we consider the control problem with the Average-Value-at-Risk (AVaR) criteria of the possibly unbounded $L^{1}$-costs in infinite horizon on a Markov Decision Process (MDP). With a suitable state aggregation and by choosing a priori a global variable $s$ heuristically, we show that there exist optimal policies for the infinite horizon problem. To … Read more

## Bounds for nested law invariant coherent risk measures

With every law invariant coherent risk measure is associated its conditional analogue. In this paper we discuss lower and upper bounds for the corresponding nested (composite) formulations of law invariant coherent risk measures. In particular, we consider the Average Value-at-Risk and comonotonic risk measures. Article Download View Bounds for nested law invariant coherent risk measures

## Risk neutral and risk averse Stochastic Dual Dynamic Programming method

In this paper we discuss risk neutral and risk averse approaches to multistage (linear) stochastic programming problems based on the Stochastic Dual Dynamic Programming (SDDP) method. We give a general description of the algorithm and present computational studies related to planning of the Brazilian interconnected power system.

## Time-inconsistent multistage stochastic programs: martingale bounds

Abstract. It is well known that multistage programs, which maximize expectation or expected utility, allow a dynamic programming formulation, and that other objectives destroy the dynamic programming character of the problem. This paper considers a risk measure at the final stage of a multistage stochastic program. Although these problems are not time consistent, it is … Read more

## On Kusuoka representation of law invariant risk measures

In this paper we discuss representations of law invariant coherent risk measures in a form of integrals of the Average Value-at-Risk measures. We show that such integral representation exists iff the dual set of the considered risk measure is generated by one of its elements, and this representation is uniquely defined. On the other hand, … Read more

## Kusuoka Representation of Higher Order Dual Risk Measures

We derive representations of higher order dual measures of risk in $\mathcal{L}^p$ spaces as suprema of integrals of Average Values at Risk with respect to probability measures on $(0,1]$ (Kusuoka representations). The suprema are taken over convex sets of probability measures. The sets are described by constraints on the dual norms of certain transformations of … Read more
