摘要:Polynomial jump-diffusions constitute a class of tractable stochastic models with wide applicability in areas such as mathematical finance and population genetics. We provide a full parameterization of polynomial jump-diffusions on the unit simplex under natural structural hypotheses on the jumps. As a stepping stone, we characterize well-posedness of the martingale problem for polynomial operators on general compact state spaces.

摘要:We consider random fields indexed by finite subsets of an amenable discrete group, taking values in the Banach-space of bounded right-continuous functions. The field is assumed to be equivariant, local, coordinate-wise monotone and almost additive, with finite range dependence. Using the theory of quasi-tilings we prove an uniform ergodic theorem, more precisely, that averages along a Folner sequence converge uniformly to a limiting function. Moreover, we give explicit error estimates for the ...

摘要:We study the optimal stopping of an American call option in a random time-horizon under exponential spectrally negative Levy models. The random time-horizon is modeled as the so-called Omega default clock in insurance, which is the first time when the occupation time of the underlying Levy process below a level y, exceeds an independent exponential random variable with mean 1/q > 0. We show that the shape of the value function varies qualitatively with different values of q and y. In particula...

摘要:Moving boundary problems allow to model systems with phase transition at an inner boundary. Motivated by problems in economics and finance, we set up a price-time continuous model for the limit order book and consider a stochastic and nonlinear extension of the classical Stefan-problem in one space dimension. Here, the paths of the moving interface might have unbounded variation, which introduces additional challenges in the analysis. Working on the distribution space, the Ito-Wentzell formula...

摘要:We establish two results about local times of spectrally positive stable processes. The first is a general approximation result, uniform in space and on compact time intervals, in a model where each jump of the stable process may be marked by a random path. The second gives moment control on the Holder constant of the local times, uniformly across a compact spatial interval and in certain random time intervals. For the latter, we introduce the notion of a Levy process restricted to a compact i...

摘要:In this paper, we introduce a network model which evolves in time, and study its largest connected component. We consider a process of graphs (G(t) : t is an element of [0, 1]), where initially we start with a critical Erdos-Renyi graph ER(n, 1/n), and then evolve forward in time by resampling each edge independently at rate 1. We show that the size of the largest connected component that appears during the time interval [0, 1] is of order n(2/3) log(1/3)n with high probability. This is in con...

摘要:The mixing time of a random walk, with or without backtracking, on a random graph generated according to the configuration model on n vertices, is known to be of order log n. In this paper, we investigate what happens when the random graph becomes dynamic, namely, at each unit of time a fraction alpha(n) of the edges is randomly rewired. Under mild conditions on the degree sequence, guaranteeing that the graph is locally tree-like, we show that for every epsilon is an element of (0, 1) the eps...
