A new characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-smoothable Banach spaces

In this paper an atomic decomposition theorem for Banach-space-valued weak Hardy regular martingale space w _p H _α ^S (X) is given. As an application, p-smoothable Banach spaces are characterized in terms of bounded sublinear operators defined on Banach-space-valued weak Hardy regular martingale space w _p H _α ^S (X).     

Martingale solutions for the three-dimensional stochastic nonhomogeneous incompressible Navier–Stokes equations driven by Lévy processes

In this paper, the three-dimensional stochastic nonhomogeneous incompressible Navier–Stokes equations driven by Lévy processes consisting of the Brownian motion, the compensated Poisson random measure and the Poisson random measure are considered in a bounded domain. We obtain the existence of martingale solutions. The construction of the solution is based on the classical Galerkin approximation method, the stopping times, the stochastic compactness method and the Jakubowski–Skorokhod theorem.     

Martingale solutions of nematic liquid crystals driven by pure jump noise in the Marcus canonical form

In this work we consider a stochastic evolution equation which describes the system governing the nematic liquid crystals driven by a pure jump noise in the Marcus canonical form. The existence of a martingale solution is proved for both 2D and 3D cases. The construction of the solution relies on a modified Faedo–Galerkin method based on the Littlewood–Paley-decomposition, compactness method and the Jakubowski version of the Skorokhod representation theorem for non-metric spaces. We prove that in the 2-D case the martingale solution is pathwise unique and hence deduce the existence of a strong solution.     

About the rate function in concentration inequalities for suprema of bounded empirical processes

We provide new deviation inequalities in the large deviations bandwidth for suprema of empirical processes indexed by classes of uniformly bounded functions associated with independent and identically distributed random variables. The improvements we get concern the rate function which is, as expected, the Legendre transform of the suprema of the log-Laplace transform of the pushforward measure by the functions of the considered class (up to an additional corrective term). Our approach is based on a decomposition in martingale together with some comparison inequalities.     

Martingale solutions of a stochastic wave equation with reflection

We discuss an initial boundary value problem for a one-dimensional stochastic wave equation with reflection. For stochastic parabolic equations with reflection, there are some well-known results. However, there seems to be no existence result for a stochastic wave equation with reflection. Even for a deterministic wave equation, the problem has not been completely resolved. Our goal is to establish the existence of a martingale solution for this problem.

Optimal portfolio strategies benchmarking the stock market

The paper investigates the impact of adding a shortfall risk constraint to the problem of a portfolio manager who wishes to maximize his utility from the portfolios terminal wealth. Since portfolio managers are often evaluated relative to benchmarks which depend on the stock market we capture risk management considerations by allowing a prespecified risk of falling short such a benchmark. This risk is measured by the expected loss in utility. Using the Black–Scholes model of a complete financial market and applying martingale methods, explicit analytic expressions for the optimal terminal wealth and the optimal portfolio strategies are given. Numerical examples illustrate the analytic results.

一类双标的型欧式买权的定价

文献[1]中讨论了双标的欧式期权的特殊情形,本文讨论一般情形:无风险资产(债券或银行存单)有依赖时间参数的利率rt,两种风险资产(股票)连续支付红利,并且分别有依赖时间参数的期望收益率μ1t,μ2 t,波动率σ1t,σ2 t,红利率q1t,q2 t以及两风险资产瞬时报酬率的相关系数ρt.在此基础上,构造了一类较为复杂的双标的型欧式买权,利用二维Girsanov定理以及鞅方法,得到买权的定价公式与避险参数Delta     

On the value of a stopped set function process

For certain types of stochastic processes {X_n | n ∈ $\text{N}$}, which are integrable and adapted to a nondecreasing sequence of σ-algebras $\text{F}$_n on a probability space (Ω, $\text{F}$, P), several authors have studied the following problems: IfSdenotes the class of all stopping times for the stochastic basis {$\text{F}$_n | n ∈ $\text{N}$}, when is$\text{sup}{}_{\mathrm{s}}\text{∫}{}_{\mathrm{\Omega }}\text{| X}{}_{\mathrm{\sigma }}\text{| dP}$finite, and when is there a stopping time $\text{σ}$ for which this supremum is attained? In the present paper we set the problem in a measure theoretic framework. This approach turns out to be fruitful since it reveals the root of the problem: It avoids the use of such notions as probability, null set, integral, and even σ-additivity. It thus allows a considerable generalization of known results, simplifies proofs, and opens the door to further research.
