    Standard macroeconomic theory points to how a budget deficit can be a contributing factor to a current account deficit. This link can be seen from considering the national accounting model of the economy:

  9. Omega ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega_ratio

    The standard form of the Omega ratio is a non-convex function, but it is possible to optimize a transformed version using linear programming. [4] To begin with, Kapsos et al. show that the Omega ratio of a portfolio is: = ⁡ ⁡ [() +] + The optimization problem that maximizes the Omega ratio is given by: ⁡ ⁡ [() +], ⁡ (), =, The objective function is non-convex, so several ...
