Published / Preprint: The Use of Numeraires in Multi-dimensional Black-Scholes Partial Differential Equations. (arXiv:1310.8296v1 [q-fin.PR])

Posted: 31 Oct 2013 05:38 PM PDT

The change of numeraire gives very important computational simplification in option pricing. This technique reduces the number of sources of risks that need to be accounted for and so it is useful in pricing complicated derivatives that have several sources of risks. In this article, we considered the underlying mathematical theory of numeraire technique in the viewpoint of PED theory...

Published / Preprint: Multiagent's model of stock market with p-adic description of prices. (arXiv:1310.8431v1 [q-fin.TR])

Posted: 31 Oct 2013 05:38 PM PDT

A new multiagent model of the stock market is formulated that contains four states in which the agents may be located. Next, the model is reformulated in the language of the functional integral containing fluctuations of prices and quantities of cash flows. It is shown that in the functional integral of that type description of the prices is given not by the real numbers as is made in many papers...

Published / Preprint: Modeling catastrophic deaths using EVT with a microsimulation approach to reinsurance pricing. (arXiv:1310.8604v1 [q-fin.RM])

Posted: 31 Oct 2013 05:38 PM PDT

Recently, a marked Poisson process (MPP) model for life catastrophe risk was proposed in [6]. We provide a justification and further support for the model by considering more general Poisson point processes in the context of extreme value theory (EVT), and basing the choice of model on statistical tests and model comparisons. A case study examining accidental deaths in the Finnish population is...

Published / Preprint: Predicting trend reversals using market instantaneous state. (arXiv:1310.8169v1 [q-fin.ST])

Posted: 30 Oct 2013 05:39 PM PDT

Collective behaviors taking place in financial markets reveal strongly correlated states especially during a crisis period. A natural hypothesis is that trend reversals are also driven by mutual influences between the different stock exchanges. Using a maximum entropy approach, we find coordinated behavior during trend reversals dominated by the pairwise component. In particular, these events are...

Published / Preprint: Sticky continuous processes have consistent price systems. (arXiv:1310.7857v1 [q-fin.PR])

Posted: 29 Oct 2013 05:38 PM PDT

Under proportional transaction costs, a price process is said to have a consistent price system, if there is a semimartingale with an equivalent martingale measure that evolves within the bid-ask spread. We show that a continuous, multi-asset price process has a consistent price system, under arbitrarily small proportional transaction costs, if it satisfies a natural multi-dimensional...
