Pricing forward-start options in the HJM framework; evidence from the Polish market

P. Sztuba, A. Weron (2001)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We show how to use the Gaussian HJM model to price modified forward-start options. Using data from the Polish market we calibrate the model and price this exotic option on the term structure. The specific problems of Central Eastern European emerging markets do not permit the use of the popular lognormal models of forward LIBOR or swap rates. We show how to overcome this difficulty.

Probabilistic models of vortex filaments

Franco Flandoli, Ida Minelli (2001)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

A model of vortex filaments based on stochastic processes is presented. In contrast to previous models based on semimartingales, here processes with fractal properties between 1 / 2 and 1 are used, which include fractional Brownian motion and similar non-Gaussian examples. Stochastic integration for these processes is employed to give a meaning to the kinetic energy.
