Journal Title: Earthline Journal of Mathematical Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
In this work, the optimal pension wealth investment strategy during the decumulation phase, in a defined contribution (DC) pension scheme is constructed. The pension plan member is allowed to invest in a risk free and a risky asset, under the constant elasticity of variance (CEV) model. The explicit solution of the constant relative risk aversion (CRRA) and constant absolute risk aversion (CARA) utility functions are obtained, using Legendre transform, dual theory, and change of variable methods. It is established herein that the elastic parameter, β, say, must not necessarily be equal to one (β ≠ 1). A theorem is constructed and proved on the wealth investment strategy. Observations and significant results are made and obtained, respectively in the comparison of our various utility functions and some previous results in literature.

Uniformity in d-algebras
In this paper, we consider a collection of d*-ideals of a d-algebra D. We use the connotation of congruence relation regard to d*-ideals to construct a uniformity which induces a topology on D. We debate the properties o...
