Geometric Mean Market Makers (G3M) such as Uniswap, Sushiswap or Balancer are key building blocks of the nascent Decentralised Finance system. We establish non-arbitrage bounds for the wealth process of such Automated Market Makers in the presence of transaction fees and highlight the dynamic of their so-called Impermanent Losses, which are incurred due to negative convexity and essentially void the benefits of portfolio diversification within G3Ms. We then turn to empirical data to establish if transaction fee income has historically been high enough to offset Impermanent Losses and allow G3M investments to outperform their continually rebalanced constant-mix portfolio counterparts. It appears that the median liquidity pool had a net nil ROI when taking Impermanent Losses into account. The cross-sectional dispersion of ROI has however been high and the pool net ROI ranking has been significantly autocorrelated for several weeks. This suggests that G3M pools are not yet efficiently arbitraged as agents may access ex-ante knowledge of which G3M pools are likely to be far better investment proposals than others. We finally focus on the UniswapV3 protocol, which introduced the notion of concentrated liquidity ranges and show that such a position can be replicated by leveraging a classic UniswapV2 pool while simultaneously hedging part of the underlying token price exposition. As such, the herein described Impermanent Loss dynamics also apply to UniswapV3 pools.
We consider the problem of option hedging in a market with proportional transaction costs. Since super-replication is very costly in such markets, we replace perfect hedging with an expected loss constraint. Asymptotic analysis for small transactions
Supermassive black holes can capture or disrupt stars that come sufficiently close. This article reviews the dynamical processes by which stars or stellar remnants are placed onto loss-cone orbits and the implications for feeding rates. The capture r
We present an online approach to portfolio selection. The motivation is within the context of algorithmic trading, which demands fast and recursive updates of portfolio allocations, as new data arrives. In particular, we look at two online algorithms
Kramkov and Sirbu (2006, 2007) have shown that first-order approximations of power utility-based prices and hedging strategies can be computed by solving a mean-variance hedging problem under a specific equivalent martingale measure and relative to a
In this paper, we study the Kelly criterion in the continuous time framework building on the work of E.O. Thorp and others. The existence of an optimal strategy is proven in a general setting and the corresponding optimal wealth process is found. A s
