Considering Lipschitz functions which are not necessarily Fr´echet differentiable, we obtain a non-smooth version of Lakshmikantham’s theorem in finite dimensional ordered Banach spaces . We also present an application of the obtained result in dynamical

Pathwise uniqueness for a SDE with non-Lipschitz coefficients
Let \(B\subseteq \mathbb R^ {n}\) be the closed unit ball, \(W\) a standard \(n\)-dimensional Wiener process. The stochastic differential equation \[ dX = -cX\,dt + \{2(1-\| X\| ^ 2)\}^ {1/2} \,dW\tag{1} \] is studied. From a well-known result by \textit{T.\ Yamada} and \textit{S.\ Watanabe} [J.\ Math.\ Kyoto Univ.\ 11, 155--167 (1971; Zbl 0236.60037)]

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 ...

Robust Bernoulli Mixture Models for Credit Portfolio Risk
ABSTRACT This paper presents comparison results and establishes risk bounds for credit portfolios within classes of Bernoulli mixture models, assuming conditionally independent defaults that are stochastically increasing in a common risk factor. We provide simple and interpretable conditions on conditional default probabilities that imply a comparison ...

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.

Generalized Newton’s method for solving nonlinear and nondifferentiable algebraic systems
In this paper a model based on non-smooth equations is proposed for solving a non-linear and non-differential equation obtained by discretization of a quasi-variational inequality that models the frictional contact problem. The main aim of this paper is

Never, Ever Getting Started: On Prospect Theory Without Commitment
ABSTRACT Prospect theory is arguably the most prominent alternative to expected utility theory. We study the investment or gambling behavior of a prospect theory decision maker who is aware of his time‐inconsistency but lacks commitment. For the empirically relevant prospect theory specifications, we obtain the extreme prediction that such a decision ...

ABSTRACT This study develops a novel multivariate stochastic framework for assessing systemic risks, such as climate and nature‐related shocks, within production or financial networks. By embedding a linear stochastic fluid network, interpretable as a generalized vector Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, into the production network of interdependent ...

Random Carbon Tax Policy and Investment Into Emission Abatement Technologies
ABSTRACT We analyze the problem of a profit‐maximizing electricity producer, subject to carbon taxes, who decides on investments into CO2$\rm CO_2$ abatement technologies. We assume that the carbon tax policy is random and that the investment in the abatement technology is divisible, irreversible, and subject to transaction costs.

Sensitivity analysis for generalized estimating equation with non‐ignorable missing data
Abstract Many incomplete‐data statistical inference procedures are developed under the missing at random (MAR) assumption. However, the MAR assumption has been criticized as being overly strong for real‐data problems, and is unverifiable by using observed data. To handle data that are missing not at random (MNAR), sensitivity analysis has been proposed
