Looking for Arbitrage

Author

Listed:
  • Flam, S.D.
Abstract
We consider financial contracts that are tradeble in any quantities at fixed prices. A bundle of such contracts constitutes an arbitrage if it offers non-negative payiff in any future state, but commands negative present cost. This note brings together fairly recent results on how to find an arbitrage provided some exists.
