An accurate assessment of the risk of extreme environmental events is of great importance for populations, authorities and the banking/insurance/reinsurance industry. Koch (2017) introduced a notion of spatial risk measure and a corresponding set of axioms which are well suited to analyze the risk due to events having a spatial extent, precisely such as environmental phenomena. The axiom of asymptotic spatial homogeneity is of particular interest since it allows one to quantify the rate of spatial diversification when the region under consideration becomes large. In this paper, we first investigate the general concepts of spatial risk measures and corresponding axioms further and thoroughly explain the usefulness of this theory for both actuarial science and practice. Second, in the case of a general cost field, we give sufficient conditions such that spatial risk measures associated with expectation, variance, Value-at-Risk as well as expected shortfall and induced by this cost field satisfy the axioms of asymptotic spatial homogeneity of order $0$, $-2$, $-1$ and $-1$, respectively. Last but not least, in the case where the cost field is a function of a max-stable random field, we provide conditions on both the function and the max-stable field ensuring the latter properties. Max-stable random fields are relevant when assessing the risk of extreme events since they appear as a natural extension of multivariate extreme-value theory to the level of random fields. Overall, this paper improves our understanding of spatial risk measures as well as of their properties with respect to the space variable and generalizes many results obtained in Koch (2017).

This paper gives an overview of the theory of dynamic convex risk measures for random variables in discrete time setting. We summarize robust representation results of conditional convex risk measures, and we characterize various time consistency pro perties of dynamic risk measures in terms of acceptance sets, penalty functions, and by supermartingale properties of risk processes and penalty functions.
Risk assessment under different possible scenarios is a source of uncertainty that may lead to concerning financial losses. We address this issue, first, by adapting a robust framework to the class of spectral risk measures. Second, we propose a Devi ation-based approach to quantify uncertainty. Furthermore, the theory is illustrated with a practical case study from NASDAQ index.
In order to evaluate the quality of the scientific research, we introduce a new family of scientific performance measures, called Scientific Research Measures (SRM). Our proposal originates from the more recent developments in the theory of risk meas ures and is an attempt to resolve the many problems of the existing bibliometric indices. The SRM that we introduce are based on the whole scientists citation record and are: coherent, as they share the same structural properties; flexible to fit peculiarities of different areas and seniorities; granular, as they allow a more precise comparison between scientists, and inclusive, as they comprehend several popular indices. Another key feature of our SRM is that they are planned to be calibrated to the particular scientific community. We also propose a dual formulation of this problem and explain its relevance in this context.
In this paper, we introduce the rich classes of conditional distortion (CoD) risk measures and distortion risk contribution ($Delta$CoD) measures as measures of systemic risk and analyze their properties and representations. The classes include the w ell-known conditional Value-at-Risk, conditional Expected Shortfall, and risk contribution measures in terms of the VaR and ES as special cases. Sufficient conditions are presented for two random vectors to be ordered by the proposed CoD-risk measures and distortion risk contribution measures. These conditions are expressed using the conventional stochastic dominance, increasing convex/concave, dispersive, and excess wealth orders of the marginals and canonical positive/negative stochastic dependence notions. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate our theoretical findings. This paper is the second in a triplet of papers on systemic risk by the same authors. In cite{DLZorder2018a}, we introduce and analyze some new stochastic orders related to systemic risk. In a third (forthcoming) paper, we attribute systemic risk to the different participants in a given risky environment.
We propose a method to assess the intrinsic risk carried by a financial position $X$ when the agent faces uncertainty about the pricing rule assigning its present value. Our approach is inspired by a new interpretation of the quasiconvex duality in a Knightian setting, where a family of probability measures replaces the single reference probability and is then applied to value financial positions. Diametrically, our construction of Value&Risk measures is based on the selection of a basket of claims to test the reliability of models. We compare a random payoff $X$ with a given class of derivatives written on $X$ , and use these derivatives to textquotedblleft testtextquotedblright the pricing measures. We further introduce and study a general class of Value&Risk measures $% R(p,X,mathbb{P})$ that describes the additional capital that is required to make $X$ acceptable under a probability $mathbb{P}$ and given the initial price $p$ paid to acquire $X$.
