Life‐cycle planning model with stochastic volatility and recursive preferences
Abstract This study examines the optimal investment, consumption, and life insurance choices faced by a wage earner with recursive preferences within a finite time horizon. We posit that the financial market comprises a risk‐free asset and a risky asset that follows a general stochastic volatility model.

ABSTRACT We study a class of models for nonlinear acoustics, including the well‐known Westervelt and Kuznetsov equations, as well as a model of Rasmussen that can be seen as a thermodynamically consistent modification of the latter. Using linearization, energy estimates, and fixed‐point arguments, we establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions ...

ABSTRACT This paper shows that long‐term stability and blowing‐up solutions for a nonlinear wave equation with a nonlocal damping of Choi and MacCamy type and a nonlocal dispersion can occur. The method of proof of general decay relies on a suitable Lyapunov functional.

Spatial modeling of crime dynamics: Patch and reaction–diffusion compartmental systems
We study the dynamics of abstract models for crime evolution. The population is divided into three compartments, taking into account the participation in crime and incarceration. Individuals transit between the three segments, assuming that having more contact with criminally active people increases one's risk of learning and acquiring the same traits;

Estimating and pricing commodity futures with time‐delay stochastic processes
In commodity futures pricing models, the commodity present price is generally considered to reflect all information in the markets and past information is not regarded important. However, there is some empirical evidence that shows that this fact is unrealistic. In this paper, we consider some stochastic models with delay for pricing commodity futures.

This contribution aims at studying a general class of random differential equations with Dirac‐delta impulse terms at a finite number of time instants. Our approach directly addresses calculating the so‐called first probability density function, from which all the relevant statistical information about the solution, a stochastic process, can be ...

The simulation of seismic wave propagation generally requires dealing with complex tridimensional geometries that are irregular in shape and have non‐uniform properties, features that make the application of the generalized finite difference method in this field interesting. This work continues the extensive developments by the research team focused on

A bounded dynamical network of curves and the stability of its steady states
In this article, we study the dynamic behavior of a network that consists of curves that are in motion and bounded. We first focus on the construction of the model which is a system of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). This system is subject to four conditions: angle and intersection conditions between the curves at the point that they ...
