An Approach to Wealth Modelling

Stoynov, Pavel (2003)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 60G48, 60G20, 60G15, 60G17. JEL Classification: G10The change in the wealth of a market agent (an investor, a company, a bank etc.) in an economy is a popular topic in finance. In this paper, we propose a general stochastic model describing the wealth process and give some of its properties and special cases. A result regarding the probability of default within the framework of the model is also offered.

An asymptotic expansion for the distribution of the supremum of a random walk

M. Sgibnev (2000)

Studia Mathematica

Let S n be a random walk drifting to -∞. We obtain an asymptotic expansion for the distribution of the supremum of S n which takes into account the influence of the roots of the equation 1 - e s x F ( d x ) = 0 , F being the underlying distribution. An estimate, of considerable generality, is given for the remainder term by means of submultiplicative weight functions. A similar problem for the stationary distribution of an oscillating random walk is also considered. The proofs rely on two general theorems for Laplace transforms....

An elementary proof of the Dalang-Morton-Willinger theorem

Armen Edigarian, Agnieszka Rygiel (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

L. C. G. Rogers has given an elementary proof of the fundamental theorem of asset pricing in the case of finite discrete time, due originally to Dalang, Morton and Willinger. The purpose of this paper is to give an even simpler proof of this important theorem without using the existence of regular conditional distribution, in contrast to Rogers' proof.

An extension of a boundedness result for singular integral operators

Deniz Karlı (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study some operators originating from classical Littlewood-Paley theory. We consider their modification with respect to our discontinuous setup, where the underlying process is the product of a one-dimensional Brownian motion and a d-dimensional symmetric stable process. Two operators in focus are the G* and area functionals. Using the results obtained in our previous paper, we show that these operators are bounded on L p . Moreover, we generalize a classical multiplier theorem by weakening its...

An extension of an inequality due to Stein and Lepingle

Ferenc Weisz (1996)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Hardy spaces consisting of adapted function sequences and generated by the q-variation and by the conditional q-variation are considered. Their dual spaces are characterized and an inequality due to Stein and Lepingle is extended.
