基于随机双曲折现的投资消费及效用无差别定价

在随机双曲折现条件下,显式地给出了具有指数函数(CARA)效用的最优跨期消费与投资组合;在非完备市场下,显式给出了基于CARA效用的收益流的效用无差别价格.结果表明:最优投资比例以及收益流的价值不受随机双曲折现因子的影响;在低折扣阶段,本文的最优消费水平高于Merton模型下的对应值,低折扣时期越短或高低折扣值相差越大,消费差距越明显.     

免赔额保险公平定价的期权博弈分析

传统保险定价实质上是供给方定价,忽视了保险契约是保险人和投保人双方互动决策的结果.另一方面,保单具有或有权益的性质,这使得近年来金融定价方法得以引入到保险定价中,以反映风险和回报之间的长期均衡关系.借助期权博弈框架引入博弈论和期权定价理论,分析了免赔额保险的公平定价问题,给出了基本模型和扩展模型两种情形下博弈均衡结果,即保单的无套利价值,并发现在扩展模型情形下,投保人的最优投保策略和均衡保险合同均发生变化.

Markov decision processes with exponentially representable discounting

We generalize the geometric discount of finite discounted cost Markov Decision Processes to “exponentially representable”discount functions, prove existence of optimal policies which are stationary from some time N onward, and provide an algorithm for their computation. Outside this class, optimal “N-stationary” policies in general do not exist.     

Two extensions to barrier option valuation

We first present a brief but essentially complete survey of the literature on barrier option pricing. We then present two extensions of European up-and-out call option valuation. The first allows for an initial protection period during which the option cannot be knocked out. The second considers an option which is only knocked out if a second asset touches an upper barrier. Closed form solutions, detailed derivations, and the economic rationale for both types of options are provided.     

Developing real option game models

By mixing concepts from both game theoretic analysis and real options theory, an investment decision in a competitive market can be seen as a “game” between firms, as firms implicitly take into account other firms’ reactions to their own investment actions. We review two decades of real option game models, suggesting which critical problems have been “solved” by considering game theory, and which significant problems have not been yet adequately addressed. We provide some insights on the plausible empirical applications, or shortfalls in applications to date, and suggest some promising avenues for future research.     

The Sprague-Grundy function of the game Euclid

We show that the Sprague-Grundy function of the game Euclid is given by g(x,y)=⌊|y/x-x/y|⌋ for x,y≥1.     

A game theoretic approach to option valuation under Markovian regime-switching models

In this paper, we consider a game theoretic approach to option valuation under Markovian regime-switching models, namely, a Markovian regime-switching geometric Brownian motion (GBM) and a Markovian regime-switching jump-diffusion model. In particular, we consider a stochastic differential game with two players, namely, the representative agent and the market. The representative agent has a power utility function and the market is a “fictitious” player of the game. We also explore and strengthen the connection between an equivalent martingale measure for option valuation selected by an equilibrium state of the stochastic differential game and that arising from a regime switching version of the Esscher transform. When the stock price process is governed by a Markovian regime-switching GBM, the pricing measures chosen by the two approaches coincide. When the stock price process is governed by a Markovian regime-switching jump-diffusion model, we identify the condition under which the pricing measures selected by the two approaches are identical.     

A Dynkin game with asymmetric information

We study a Dynkin game with asymmetric information. The game has a random expiry time, which is exponentially distributed and independent of the underlying process. The players have asymmetric information on the expiry time, namely only one of the players is able to observe its occurrence. We propose a set of conditions under which we solve the saddle point equilibrium and study the implications of the information asymmetry. Results are illustrated with an explicit example.     

On dividend strategies with non-exponential discounting

In this paper, we study the dividend maximization problem with a non-constant discount rate in a diffusion risk model. We assume that the dividends can only be paid at a bounded rate and restrict ourselves to Markov strategies. This is a time inconsistent control problem. The equilibrium HJB-equation is given and the verification theorem is proven for a general discount function. Considering a mixture of exponential discount functions and a pseudo-exponential discount function, we get equilibrium dividend strategies and the corresponding equilibrium value functions by solving the equilibrium HJB-equations.

On a dynamic fractional game

Consider a two-person zero-sum game constructed by a dynamic fractional form. We establish the upper value as well as the lower value of a dynamic fractional game, and prove that the dual gap is equal to zero under certain conditions. It is also established that the saddle point function exists in the fractional game system under certain conditions so that the equilibrium point exists in this game system.
