A primer on perpetuals

no code implementations7 Sep 2022 Guillermo Angeris, Tarun Chitra, Alex Evans, Matthew Lorig

When asset prices can jump and the volatility process is independent of the underlying risky assets, we derive an explicit replication strategy for the short side of a perpetual contract.

Replicating Monotonic Payoffs Without Oracles

no code implementations26 Nov 2021 Guillermo Angeris, Alex Evans, Tarun Chitra

In this paper, we show that any monotonic payoff can be replicated using only liquidity provider shares in constant function market makers (CFMMs), without the need for additional collateral or oracles.

Optimal Fees for Geometric Mean Market Makers

no code implementations1 Apr 2021 Alex Evans, Guillermo Angeris, Tarun Chitra

Trading fees have been proposed as a mechanism for compensating LPs for arbitrage losses.

Replicating Market Makers

no code implementations26 Mar 2021 Guillermo Angeris, Alex Evans, Tarun Chitra

We present a method for constructing Constant Function Market Makers (CFMMs) whose portfolio value functions match a desired payoff.

When does the tail wag the dog? Curvature and market making

no code implementations15 Dec 2020 Guillermo Angeris, Alex Evans, Tarun Chitra

We show that this definition is tightly related to the curvature of a CFMM's trading function and can be used to explain a number of heuristic results.

Optimal Representative Sample Weighting

1 code implementation18 May 2020 Shane Barratt, Guillermo Angeris, Stephen Boyd

We consider the problem of assigning weights to a set of samples or data records, with the goal of achieving a representative weighting, which happens when certain sample averages of the data are close to prescribed values.

Improved Price Oracles: Constant Function Market Makers

no code implementations22 Mar 2020 Guillermo Angeris, Tarun Chitra

Automated market makers, first popularized by Hanson's logarithmic market scoring rule (or LMSR) for prediction markets, have become important building blocks, called 'primitives,' for decentralized finance.

Fundamental bounds for scattering from absorptionless electromagnetic structures

1 code implementation1 Mar 2020 Rahul Trivedi, Guillermo Angeris, Logan Su, Stephen Boyd, Shanhui Fan, Jelena Vuckovic

We illustrate our bounding procedure by studying limits on the scattering cross-sections of dielectric and metallic particles in the absence of material losses.

A New Heuristic for Physical Design

1 code implementation13 Feb 2020 Guillermo Angeris, Jelena Vučković, Stephen Boyd

In a physical design problem, the designer chooses values of some physical parameters, within limits, to optimize the resulting field.

Automatic Repair of Convex Optimization Problems

1 code implementation29 Jan 2020 Shane Barratt, Guillermo Angeris, Stephen Boyd

Given an infeasible, unbounded, or pathological convex optimization problem, a natural question to ask is: what is the smallest change we can make to the problem's parameters such that the problem becomes solvable?

An analysis of Uniswap markets

no code implementations8 Nov 2019 Guillermo Angeris, Hsien-Tang Kao, Rei Chiang, Charlie Noyes, Tarun Chitra

Uniswap -- and other constant product markets -- appear to work well in practice despite their simplicity.

Minimizing a Sum of Clipped Convex Functions

1 code implementation27 Oct 2019 Shane Barratt, Guillermo Angeris, Stephen Boyd

We consider the problem of minimizing a sum of clipped convex functions; applications include clipped empirical risk minimization and clipped control.

Fast Reciprocal Collision Avoidance Under Measurement Uncertainty

1 code implementation30 May 2019 Guillermo Angeris, Kunal Shah, Mac Schwager

We present a fully distributed collision avoidance algorithm based on convex optimization for a team of mobile robots.

Computational Bounds For Photonic Design

1 code implementation30 Nov 2018 Guillermo Angeris, Jelena Vuckovic, Stephen Boyd

Physical design problems, such as photonic inverse design, are typically solved using local optimization methods.
