Convergence of a high-order compact finite difference scheme for a nonlinear Black-Scholes equation [PDF]
A high-order compact finite difference scheme for a fully nonlinear parabolic differential equation is analyzed. The equation arises in the modeling of option prices in financial markets with transaction costs.

Contingent capital: A tale of two valuations
Abstract This study investigates the valuation gap between buyers and sellers of insurers' contingent capital, driven by asymmetric exposures to tax benefits, capital injections, and bankruptcy costs. We develop a novel Twin‐Tree Model with Jumps (TTMJ) that models the insurer's asset value dynamics by incorporating catastrophe risk, insolvency risk ...

A Framework for Derivative Pricing in the Fractional Black-Scholes Market [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to develop a framework for evaluating derivatives if the underlying of the derivative contract is supposed to be driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than 0.5.

Positivity Preserving Schemes for Black-Scholes Equation [PDF]
Mathematical finance is a field of applied mathematics, concerned with financial markets. In the market of financial derivatives the most important problem is the so called option valuation problem, i.e. to compute a fair value for the option.

Evaluation of Options using the Black-Scholes Methodology
This paper discusses how to obtain the Black-Scholes equation to evaluate options and how to obtain explicit solutions for Call and Put. The Black-Scholes equation, which is the basis for determining explicit solutions for Call and Put, is a rather ...

Measure‐valued processes for energy markets
Abstract We introduce a framework that allows to employ (non‐negative) measure‐valued processes for energy market modeling, in particular for electricity and gas futures. Interpreting the process' spatial structure as time to maturity, we show how the Heath–Jarrow–Morton approach can be translated to this framework, thus guaranteeing arbitrage free ...

The Black–Scholes equation in stochastic volatility models
The purpose of this paper is to provide the precise connection between the risk-neutral expected value and the pricing PDE with appropriate boundary conditions for stochastic volatility models. This paper extends the one-dimensional results by the authors in [``Boundary conditions for the single-factor term structure equation'', Ann. Appl.

Simple Formulas to Option Pricing and Hedging in the Black- Scholes Model [PDF]
For option whose striking price equals the forward price of the underlying asset, the Black-Scholes pricing formula can be approximated in closed-form. A interesting result is that the derived equation is not only very simple in structure but also that ...

Vulnerable options pricing under uncertain volatility model
In this paper, we consider the pricing problem of options with counterparty default risks. We study the asymptotic behavior of vulnerable option prices in the worst case scenario under an uncertain volatility model which contains both corporate assets ...

Reinforcement Learning for Jump‐Diffusions, With Financial Applications
ABSTRACT We study continuous‐time reinforcement learning (RL) for stochastic control in which system dynamics are governed by jump‐diffusion processes. We formulate an entropy‐regularized exploratory control problem with stochastic policies to capture the exploration–exploitation balance essential for RL.
