Density in small time for Levy processes
Density in small time for Lévy processes
The density of real-valued Lévy processes is studied in small time under the assumption that the process has many small jumps. We prove that the real line can be divided into three subsets on which the density is smaller and smaller: the set of points that the process can reach with a finite number of jumps (Δ-accessible points); the set of points that the process can reach with an infinite number of jumps (asymptotically Δ-accessible points); and the set of points that the process cannot...
Differential equation approximations for Markov chains.
Distribution-valued iterated gradient and chaotic decompositions of Poisson jump times functionals.
We define a class of distributions on Poisson space which allows to iterate a modification of the gradient of [1]. As an application we obtain, with relatively short calculations, a formula for the chaos expansion of functionals of jump times of the Poisson process.
Double-stepped adaptive control for hybrid systems with unknown Markov jumps and stochastic noises
This paper is concerned with the sampled-data based adaptive linear quadratic (LQ) control of hybrid systems with both unmeasurable Markov jump processes and stochastic noises. By the least matching error estimation algorithm, parameter estimates are presented. By a double-step (DS) sampling approach and the certainty equivalence principle, a sampled-data based adaptive LQ control is designed. The DS-approach is characterized by a comparatively large estimation step for parameter estimation and...

Dynamic programming for an investment/consumption problem in illiquid markets with regime-switching
We consider an illiquid financial market with different regimes modeled by a continuous time finite-state Markov chain. The investor can trade a stock only at the discrete arrival times of a Cox process with intensity depending on the market regime. Moreover, the risky asset price is subject to liquidity shocks, which change its rate of return and volatility, and induce jumps on its dynamics. In this setting, we study the problem of an economic agent optimizing her expected utility from consumption...
