Using duality methods, we prove several key properties of the indifference price π for contingent claims. The underlying market model is very general and the mathematical formulation is based on a duality naturally induced by the problem. In particular, the indifference price π turns out to be a convex risk measure on the Orlicz space induced by the utility function. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to describe the appropriate mathematical framework for the study of the duality principle in option pricing. We consider models where prices evolve as general exponential semimartingales and provide a complete characterization
of the dual process under the dual measure. Particular cases of these models are the ones driven by Brownian motions and by
Lévy processes, which have been considered in several papers.
Generally speaking, the duality principle states that the calculation of the price of a call option for a model with price
process S=e
H
(with respect to the measure P) is equivalent to the calculation of the price of a put option for a suitable dual model S′=e
H′ (with respect to the dual measure P′). More sophisticated duality results are derived for a broad spectrum of exotic options.

We consider the problem of finding the probability of ruin when the risk process is assumed to be a special semimartingale with absolutely continuous characteristics. We show how the generalized Girsanov theorem can be used in connection with Monte Carlo simulation to obtain estimates of the ruin probabilities. It is shown by both analytical and numerical examples that these methods can be significantly better than ordinary simulations provided the new measure is chosen with some care. 相似文献

Summary Certain properties are considered of those models describing the distribution with time of persons or things among different states (e. g. in an epidemio· model we have the states of susceptibility, infection, death and immunity) for which the transition probabilities depend only upon the numbers in the different states. Special attention is paid to Feller's logistic population model and Bartlett's infection moqeI as being representative of the nonlinear type of scheme. The main results are the different series solutions for the moments given by equations (2.8), (3.9) and (3.12). 相似文献

Using a suitable change of probability measure, we obtain a Poisson series representation for the arbitrage‐free price process of vulnerable contingent claims in a regime‐switching market driven by an underlying continuous‐time Markov process. As a result of this representation, along with a short‐time asymptotic expansion of the claim's price process, we develop an efficient novel method for pricing claims whose payoffs may depend on the full path of the underlying Markov chain. The proposed approach is applied to price not only simple European claims such as defaultable bonds, but also a new type of path‐dependent claims that we term self‐decomposable, as well as the important class of vulnerable call and put options on a stock. We provide a detailed error analysis and illustrate the accuracy and computational complexity of our method on several market traded instruments, such as defaultable bond prices, barrier options, and vulnerable call options. Using again our Poisson series representation, we show differentiability in time of the predefault price function of European vulnerable claims, which enables us to rigorously deduce Feynman‐Ka? representations for the predefault pricing function and new semimartingale representations for the price process of the vulnerable claim under both risk‐neutral and objective probability measures. 相似文献

Asymptotic arbitrage in large financial markets 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A large financial market is described by a sequence of standard general models of continuous trading. It turns out that the absence of asymptotic arbitrage of the first kind is equivalent to the contiguity of sequence of objective probabilities with respect to the sequence of upper envelopes of equivalent martingale measures, while absence of asymptotic arbitrage of the second kind is equivalent to the contiguity of the sequence of lower envelopes of equivalent martingale measures with respect to the sequence of objective probabilities. We express criteria of contiguity in terms of the Hellinger processes. As examples, we study a large market with asset prices given by linear stochastic equations which may have random volatilities, the Ross Arbitrage Pricing Model, and a discrete-time model with two assets and infinite horizon. The suggested theory can be considered as a natural extension of Arbirage Pricing Theory covering the continuous as well as the discrete time case. 相似文献

We consider an incomplete stochastic financial market where the price processes are described by a vector valued semimartingale
that is possibly non locally bounded. We face the classical problem of utility maximization from terminal wealth, under the
assumption that the utility function is finite-valued and smooth on the entire real line and satisfies reasonable asymptotic
elasticity. In this general setting, it was shown in Biagini and Frittelli (Financ. Stoch. 9, 493–517, 2005) that the optimal
claim admits an integral representation as soon as the minimax σ-martingale measure is equivalent to the reference probability
measure. We show that the optimal wealth process is in fact a supermartingale with respect to every σ-martingale measure with
finite generalized entropy, thus extending the analogous result proved by Schachermayer (Financ. Stoch. 4, 433–457, 2003)
for the locally bounded case.

We study the uniqueness of the marginal utility-based price of contingent claims in a semimartingale model of an incomplete financial market. In particular, we obtain that a necessary and sufficient condition for all bounded contingent claims to admit a unique marginal utility-based price is that the solution to the dual problem defines an equivalent local martingale measure. 相似文献

In the style of Rogers (2001) , we give a unified method for finding the dual problem in a given model by stating the problem as an unconstrained Lagrangian problem. In a theoretical part we prove our main theorem, Theorem 3.1, which shows that under a number of conditions the value of the dual and primal problems is equal. The theoretical setting is sufficiently general to be applied to a large number of examples including models with transaction costs, such as Cvitanic and Karatzas (1996) (which could not be covered by the setting in Rogers [2001] ). To apply the general result one has to verify the assumptions of Theorem 3.1 for each concrete example. We show how the method applies for two examples, first Cuoco and Liu (1992) and second Cvitanic and Karatzas (1996) . 相似文献
