Economic assessment of the Champagne wine qualitative stock mecanism
In the wine AOC system, the regulation of quantities performed by the professional organizations is aimed to smooth the variations of the quality of the wine due to the variations in the climate that affect the quality of the grapes. Nevertheless, this regulation could be damaging to the consumers due to the price increase resulting from the reduction of the quantities sold on the market. We propose a stochastic control model and a simulation tool able to measure the effects of this mechanism...
Ergodic properties of multidimensional Brownian motion with rebirth.
Estrategias óptimas de publicidad y precio.
El modelo de control óptimo no lineal, considerado en este artículo, posee una variable de estado x proporción de clientes y dos variables de control: precio p y gastos en publicidad u. Realizando un análisis de estabilidad en diferentes planos de fase se demuestra, bajo ciertas hipótesis, que es óptimo introducir un producto en el mercado con un precio reducido y realizando una fuerte inversión al comienzo de la campaña.
Explicit formulae of distributions and densities of characteristics of a dynamic advertising and pricing model
We analyze the optimal sales process of a stochastic advertising and pricing model with constant demand elasticities. We derive explicit formulae of the densities of the (optimal) sales times and (optimal) prices when a fixed finite number of units of a product are to be sold during a finite sales period or an infinite one. Furthermore, for any time t the exact distribution of the inventory, i.e. the number of unsold items, at t is determined and will be expressed in terms of elementary functions....
Extensions of convex functionals on convex cones
We prove that under some topological assumptions (e.g. if M has nonempty interior in X), a convex cone M in a linear topological space X is a linear subspace if and only if each convex functional on M has a convex extension on the whole space X.

Hedging in complete markets driven by normal martingales
This paper aims at a unified treatment of hedging in market models driven by martingales with deterministic bracket , including Brownian motion and the Poisson process as particular cases. Replicating hedging strategies for European, Asian and Lookback options are explicitly computed using either the Clark-Ocone formula or an extension of the delta hedging method, depending on which is most appropriate.
Incompleteness of the bond market with Lévy noise under the physical measure
The problem of completeness of the forward rate based bond market model driven by a Lévy process under the physical measure is examined. The incompleteness of market in the case when the Lévy measure has a density function is shown. The required elements of the theory of stochastic integration over the compensated jump measure under a martingale measure are presented and the corresponding integral representation of local martingales is proven.
Integral representations of risk functions for basket derivatives
The risk minimizing problem in the multidimensional Black-Scholes framework is studied. Specific formulas for the minimal risk function and the cost reduction function for basket derivatives are shown. Explicit integral representations for the risk functions for l(x) = x and , with p > 1 for digital, quantos, outperformance and spread options are derived.

Large games with only small players and finite strategy sets
Large games of kind considered in the present paper (LSF-games) directly generalize the usual concept of n-matrix games; the notion is related to games with a continuum of players and anonymous games with finitely many types of players, finitely many available actions and distribution dependent payoffs; however, there is no need to introduce a distribution on the set of types. Relevant features of equilibrium distributions are studied by means of fixed point, nonlinear complementarity and constrained...
Large games with only small players and strategy sets in Euclidean spaces
The games of type considered in the present paper (LSE-games) extend the concept of LSF-games studied by Wieczorek in [2004], both types of games being related to games with a continuum of players. LSE-games can be seen as anonymous games with finitely many types of players, their action sets included in Euclidean spaces and payoffs depending on a player's own action and finitely many integral characteristics of distributions of the players' (of all types) actions. We prove the existence of equilibria...

Limiting distribution for a simple model of order book dynamics
A continuous-time model for the limit order book dynamics is considered. The set of outstanding limit orders is modeled as a pair of random counting measures and the limiting distribution of this pair of measure-valued processes is obtained under suitable conditions on the model parameters. The limiting behavior of the bid-ask spread and the midpoint of the bid-ask interval are also characterized.
