On a Stochastic Model of Diversification
We propose a definition of diversification as a binary relationship between financial portfolios. According to it, a convex linear combination of several risk positions with some weights is considered to be less risky than the probabilistic mixture of the same risk positions with the same weights. It turns out to be that the proposed partial ordering coincides with the well-known second order stochastic dominance, but allows to take a look at it from another perspective.

Diversification for infinite-mean Pareto models without risk aversion
We study stochastic dominance between portfolios of independent and identically distributed (iid) extremely heavy-tailed (i.e., infinite-mean) Pareto random variables. With the notion of majorization order, we show that …
Diversification quotients based on VaR and ES
The diversification quotient (DQ) is recently introduced for quantifying the degree of diversification of a stochastic portfolio model. It has an axiomatic foundation and can be defined through a parametric class of risk…
Portfolio OptimizationOptimising portfolio diversification and dimensionality
A new framework for portfolio diversification is introduced which goes beyond the classical mean-variance approach and portfolio allocation strategies such as risk parity. It is based on a novel concept called portfolio …
global-optimizationSparse spanning portfolios and under-diversification with second-order stochastic dominance
We develop and implement methods for determining whether relaxing sparsity constraints on portfolios improves the investment opportunity set for risk-averse investors. We formulate a new estimation procedure for sparse s…
Stochastic trade-offs and the emergence of diversification in E. coli evolution experiments
Laboratory experiments with bacterial colonies, under well-controlled conditions often lead to evolutionary diversification, where at least two ecotypes emerge from an initially monomorphic population. Empirical evidence…
