Valuation of Inflation-Linked Annuities in a Lévy Market

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2011
We study the problem of pricing an inflation adjusted annuity in a forward rates market with jumps. Since the market will be incomplete, we use the minimal fq-martingale measure Qq which we use for computing discounted expectations.

New Approaches for Almost-Sure Termination of Probabilistic Programs [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Symposium on Programming Languages and Systems, 2018
We study the almost-sure termination problem for probabilistic programs. First, we show that supermartingales with lower bounds on conditional absolute difference provide a sound approach for the almost-sure termination problem.

Generalized SURE for Exponential Families: Applications to Regularization

open access: yes, 2008
Stein's unbiased risk estimate (SURE) was proposed by Stein for the independent, identically distributed (iid) Gaussian model in order to derive estimates that dominate least-squares (LS).

A sharp analysis on the asymptotic behavior of the Durbin-Watson statistic for the first-order autoregressive process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this paper is to provide a sharp analysis on the asymptotic behavior of the Durbin-Watson statistic. We focus our attention on the first-order autoregressive process where the driven noise is also given by a first-order autoregressive ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

An optimal reinsurance management and dividend payout strategy when the insurer’s reserve is an Ito–Levy process

open access: yesCogent Economics & Finance, 2019
We solve the problem of an insurer who decides to optimally allocate a proportion (1—a(t)) of premiums to a re-insurance company (thereby retaining a proportion a(t) of premiums) and who also has to optimally pay dividends c(t) at any time t to ...

An almost sure ergodic theorem for quasistatic dynamical systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We prove almost sure ergodic theorems for a class of systems called quasistatic dynamical systems. These results are needed, because the usual theorem due to Birkhoff does not apply in the absence of invariant measures. We also introduce the concept of a
