Book excerpt: This thesis is dedicated to the study of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) and their applications. In chapter 1, we study the problem of maximizing the utility from terminal wealth where the stock price may jump and there are investment constraints on the agent 's strategies. We focus on the BSDE whose solution represents the maximal utility, which allows transferring results on quadratic BSDEs, in particular the stability results, to the problem of utility maximisation. In chapter 2, we consider the problem of pricing American options from theoretical and numerical sides based upon an alternative representation of the value of the option in the form of a viscosity solution of a parabolic equation with a nonlinear reaction term. We extend the viscosity solution characterization proved in [Benth, Karlsen and Reikvam 2003] for call/put American option prices to the case of a general payoff function in a multi-dimensional setting. We address two new numerical schemes inspired by the branching processes. Our numerical experiments show that approximating the discontinuous driver of the associated reaction/diffusion PDE by local polynomials is not efficient, while a simple randomization procedure provides very good results. In chapter 3, we prove existence and uniqueness results for a general class of coupled mean-field forward-backward SDEs with jumps under weak monotonicity conditions and without the non-degeneracy assumption on the forward equation and we give an application in the field of storage in smart grids in the case where the production of electricity is unpredictable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the texts of seminars presented during the years 1995 and 1996 at the Université Paris VI and is the first attempt to present a survey on this subject. Starting from the classical conditions for existence and unicity of a solution in the most simple case-which requires more than basic stochartic calculus-several refinements on the hypotheses are introduced to obtain more general results.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on backward stochastic differential equation with jumps and their applications. In the first chapter, we study a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE for short) driven jointly by a Brownian motion and an integer valued random measure that may have infinite activity with compensator being possibly time inhomogeneous. In particular, we are concerned with the case where the driver has quadratic growth and unbounded terminal condition. The existence and uniqueness of the solution are proven by combining a monotone approximation technics and a forward approach. Chapter 2 is devoted to the well-posedness of generalized doubly reflected BSDEs (GDRBSDE for short) with jumps under weaker assumptions on the data. In particular, we study the existence of a solution for a one-dimensional GDRBSDE with jumps when the terminal condition is only measurable with respect to the related filtration and when the coefficient has general stochastic quadratic growth. We also show, in a suitable framework, the connection between our class of backward stochastic differential equations and risk sensitive zero-sum game. In chapter 3, we investigate a general class of fully coupled mean field forward-backward under weak monotonicity conditions without assuming any non-degeneracy assumption on the forward equation. We derive existence and uniqueness results under two different sets of conditions based on proximation schema weither on the forward or the backward equation. Later, we give an application for storage in smart grids.

This book was released on 2019-08-31 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of selected, revised and extended contributions resulted from a Workshop on BSDEs, SPDEs and their Applications that took place in Edinburgh, Scotland, July 2017 and included the 8th World Symposium on BSDEs. The volume addresses recent advances involving backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) and stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). These equations are of fundamental importance in modelling of biological, physical and economic systems, and underpin many problems in control of random systems, mathematical finance, stochastic filtering and data assimilation. The papers in this volume seek to understand these equations, and to use them to build our understanding in other areas of mathematics. This volume will be of interest to those working at the forefront of modern probability theory, both established researchers and graduate students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this collection, the authors begin by introducing a methodology for examining continuous-time Ornstein-Uhlenbech family processes defined by stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Additionally, a study is presented introducing the mathematics of mixed effect parameters in univariate and bivariate SDEs and describing how such a model can be used to aid our understanding of growth processes using real world datasets. Results and experience from applying the concepts and techniques in an extensive individual tree and stand growth modeling program in Lithuania are described as examples. Next, the authors present a review paper on J-calculus, as well as a contributed paper which displays some new results on the topic and deepens some special properties in relation with non-differentiability of functions. Following this, this book develops the general framework to be used in our papers [2, 9, 8]. The starting point for the discussion will be the standard risk-sensitive structures, and how constructions of this kind can be given a rigorous treatment. The risk-sensitive optimal control is also investigated by using the extending part of this of problem of backward stochastic equation. In the closing article, the authors note that the square of an O-U process is the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process used as a model for volatility in finance. The filtered form of the original hazard rate based on this new observation is also studied. If the difference between the original hazard rate and the filtered one is not significant, then the person is not affected by the new frailty"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These notes are based on a postgraduate course I gave on stochastic differential equations at Edinburgh University in the spring 1982. No previous knowledge about the subject was assumed, but the presen tation is based on some background in measure theory. There are several reasons why one should learn more about stochastic differential equations: They have a wide range of applica tions outside mathematics, there are many fruitful connections to other mathematical disciplines and the subject has a rapidly develop ing life of its own as a fascinating research field with many interesting unanswered questions. Unfortunately most of the literature about stochastic differential equations seems to place so much emphasis on rigor and complete ness that is scares many nonexperts away. These notes are an attempt to approach the subject from the nonexpert point of view: Not knowing anything (except rumours, maybe) about a subject to start with, what would I like to know first of all? My answer would be: 1) In what situations does the subject arise? 2) What are its essential features? 3) What are the applications and the connections to other fields? I would not be so interested in the proof of the most general case, but rather in an easier proof of a special case, which may give just as much of the basic idea in the argument. And I would be willing to believe some basic results without proof (at first stage, anyway) in order to have time for some more basic applications.
