AUTHOR=Osterrieder Joerg TITLE=Share buybacks: a theoretical exploration of genetic algorithms and mathematical optionality JOURNAL=Frontiers in Artificial Intelligence VOLUME=6 YEAR=2023 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/artificial-intelligence/articles/10.3389/frai.2023.1276804 DOI=10.3389/frai.2023.1276804 ISSN=2624-8212 ABSTRACT=
This article exclusively formulates and presents three innovative hypotheses related to the execution of share buybacks, employing Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and mathematical optimization techniques. Drawing on the foundational contributions of scholars such as Osterrieder, Seigne, Masters, and Guéant, we articulate hypotheses that aim to bring a fresh perspective to share buyback strategies. The first hypothesis examines the potential of GAs to mimic trading schedules, the second posits the optimization of buyback execution as a mathematical problem, and the third underlines the role of optionality in improving performance. These hypotheses do not only offer theoretical insights but also set the stage for empirical examination and practical application, contributing to broader financial innovation. The article does not contain new data or extensive reviews but focuses purely on presenting these original, untested hypotheses, sparking intrigue for future research and exploration.
