The single-period inventory model with spectral risk measures

Inventory management and pricing decisions based on quantitative models both in industrial practice and academic works often rely on minimizing expected cost, which refers to the concept of risk-neutrality of the decision maker. In this title, spectral risk measures are applied to price-setting news...
