2003Execution Cost With Stronger Capacity Wall 8The blow-up term is steeper, but the same convexity logic should still go through. Show that f(q) = 2 q 2 + 4/(1-q) is strictly convex on q<1.数学中等derivation未尝试免费2004Perspective Penalty 9A schedule trades size x over time t and pays x 2/t plus a linear time charge. Show that P(x,t)=x 2/t + 2 t is convex on the domain t>0.数学中等derivation未尝试免费2005Convexity of a Two-Asset Quadratic With a Balance-Sheet Term 10Show that H(w 1,w 2)=2w 1 2+5w 2 2+3(w 1+w 2) 2 is convex.数学困难derivation未尝试免费2006Minimum Ridge for a Sharper Quartic Approximation 11A local approximation is even more non-convex, so the repair parameter must rise accordingly. A local PnL model is h(q)=q 4-10q 2+lambda q 2. What is the smallest lambda that makes h globally convex?数学简单数值题未尝试免费2007Three-Sleeve Convex Balance-Sheet Penalty 12The third sleeve is much more expensive on its own, but the aggregate term still preserves convexity. Prove that F(w 1,w 2,w 3) = 1w 1 2 + 4w 2 2 + 9w 3 2 + 2(w 1+w 2+w 3) 2 is convex.数学简单derivation未尝试免费2008Barrier Cost With Strong Quadratic Curvature 13Both the quadratic inventory term and the capacity wall are active sources of curvature. Show that f(q) = 4 q 2 + 3/(1-q) is strictly convex on q<1.数学中等derivation未尝试免费2009Log Barrier Plus Ridge Penalty 14The desk penalizes approaching a utilization cap and also adds a quadratic regularizer. Show that r(x) = -ln(1-2x) + 1x 2 is convex on x < 0.5.数学困难derivation未尝试免费2010Smoothed Worst of Two Affine Stress Terms 15The worst-case proxy is no longer a hard max, but a smooth convex substitute. Show that g(x) = ln(exp(2x) + exp(-1x + 3)) is convex on R.数学困难derivation未尝试免费2011Joint Convexity of Size-Time Execution Cost 16The cost couples size and trading time through a perspective form. Show that P(x,t)=x 2/t + 3 t is convex on the domain t>0.数学简单derivation未尝试免费2012Convexity of a Tighter Utilization Penalty 17The utilization cap is tighter, but the same barrier argument applies. Show that r(x) = -ln(1-3x) + 2x 2 is convex on x < 0.333333.数学中等derivation未尝试免费2013Sum of Convex Terms Stays Convex 18If c 1(q)=q 2+1/(1-q) and c 2(q)=2q 2+3/(1-q), why is c 1(q)+c 2(q) convex on q<1?数学中等derivation未尝试免费2014Why the Smooth-Max Proxy Is Convex 19Explain in one sentence why log(exp(a 1 T x)+...+exp(a k T x)) is convex.数学困难derivation未尝试免费2015Inventory Cost Near a Hard Capacity Limit 20The PM wants a formal convexity check before using the function in an optimizer. Show that f(q) = 5 q 2 + 2/(1-q) is strictly convex on q<1.数学困难derivation未尝试面试订阅2016Why Convexity Matters Operationally 21Why do trading desks care whether an execution-cost model is convex rather than merely smooth?数学简单essay未尝试免费2019Convexity of Logistic Loss 24Show that ell(z)=ln(1+e -z ) is convex on R.数学中等derivation未尝试免费2020Convex Margin Penalty With a Soft Capacity Wall 25The margin term grows smoothly but sharply as the leverage coordinate approaches its cap. Show that r(x) = -ln(1-1x) + 3x 2 is convex on x < 1.数学困难derivation未尝试免费2021Jensen Direction for a Utilization Penalty 1Randomizing a schedule changes the expected nonlinear penalty, not just the mean utilization. Let phi(q)=q/(1-q) on 0<=q<1. If Q is random with E[Q]=m, is E[phi(Q)] at least phi(E[Q]) or at most phi(E[Q])?数学简单derivation未尝试免费2022Funding Buffer Gap From Two Leverage States 2The leverage can be either very low or quite high, and the desk wants the exact Jensen gap. A funding-buffer model uses phi(L)=1/(1+L). Suppose L takes values 0 and 3 with probabilities 1/2 and 1/2. Compute E[phi(L)] and phi(E[L]).数学简单数值题未尝试免费2023Square-Root Impact Averages Down 3A square-root impact proxy makes dispersion beneficial relative to plugging in the average size directly. Let psi(v)=sqrt(1+v) on v>=0. If V is random, how do E[psi(V)] and psi(E[V]) compare?数学中等derivation未尝试免费2026Why Dispersion Raises a Convex Penalty 6Why does randomizing Q around a fixed mean raise E[Q/(1-Q)] relative to plugging in the mean directly?数学简单derivation未尝试免费
