In quantitative finance, we often fit a parametric semimartingale model to asset prices. To ensure our model is correct, we must then perform goodness-of-fit tests. In this paper, we give a new goodness-of-fit test for volatility-like…
In this paper, we study the stability and convergence of some general quadratic semimartingales. Motivated by financial applications, we study simultaneously the semimartingale and its opposite. Their characterization and integrability…
Given a positive random variable $X$, $X\ge0$ a.s., a null hypothesis $H_0:E(X)\le\mu$ and a random sample of infinite size of $X$, we construct test supermartingales for $H_0$, i.e. positive processes that are supermartingale if the null…
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First is to extend the notions of an n-dimensional semimartingale and its stochastic integral to a piecewise semimartingale of stochastic dimension. The properties of the former carry over largely…
Stochastic symmetries and related invariance properties of finite dimensional SDEs driven by general c\`adl\`ag semimartingales taking values in Lie groups are defined and investigated. In order to enlarge the class of possible symmetries…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a sequence of functions on a set $\Omega$ under which there is a measure on $\Omega$ which renders the given sequence of functions a martingale. Further such a measure is unique if we impose a…
This paper presents a structure-preserving model reduction approach applicable to large-scale, nonlinear port-Hamiltonian systems. Structure preservation in the reduction step ensures the retention of port-Hamiltonian structure which, in…
We characterize affine term structure models of non-negative short rate $R$ which may be obtained as solutions of autonomous SDEs driven by independent, one-dimensional L\'evy martingales, that is equations of the form $$…
This work is concerned with tests on structural breaks in the spot volatility process of a general It\^o semimartingale based on discrete observations contaminated with i.i.d. microstructure noise. We construct a consistent test building up…
Let $X^1,\ldots, X^d$ be sigma-martingales on $(\Omega,{\cal F}, P)$. We show that every bounded martingale (with respect to the underlying filtration) admits an integral representation w.r.t. $X^1,\ldots, X^d$ if and only if there is no…
This note contains a short discussion on the sufficiency of finite optimality in martingale transport. It is shown that finitely minimal martingale measures are solutions of the martingale transport problem when the cost function is upper…
In this paper we discuss existence and uniqueness for a one-dimensional time inhomogeneous stochastic differential equation directed by an $\mathbb{F}$-semimartingale $M$ and a finite cubic variation process $\xi$ which has the structure…
We investigate the supports of extremal martingale measures with pre-specified marginals in a two-period setting. First, we establish in full generality the equivalence between the extremality of a given measure $Q$ and the denseness in…
L\'evy driven term structure models have become an important subject in the mathematical finance literature. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the L\'evy driven Heath-Jarrow-Morton type term structure equation. This includes a…
The main object of investigation in this paper is a very general regression model in optional setting - when an observed process is an optional semimartingale depending on an unknown parameter. It is well-known that statistical data may…
Let $\mathbb{\hat{E}}$ be the upper expectation of a weakly compact but non-dominated family $\mathcal{P}$ of probability measures. Assume that $Y$ is a $d$-dimensional $\mathcal{P}$-semimartingale under $\mathbb{\hat{E}}$. Given an open…
We prove a large deviation principle for stochastic differential equations driven by semimartingales, with additive controls. Conditions are given in terms of characteristics of driven semimartingales, so that if the noise-control pairs…
In this paper, we derive comparison results for terminal values of $d$-dimensional special semimartingales and also for finite-dimensional distributions of multivariate L\'{e}vy processes. The comparison is with respect to nondecreasing,…
We obtain some results of existence and continuity of physical measures through equilibrium states and apply these to non-uniformly expanding transformations on compact manifolds with non-flat critical sets, obtaining sufficient conditions…
Many results in stochastic analysis and mathematical finance involve local martingales. However, specific examples of strict local martingales are rare and analytically often rather unhandy. We study local martingales that follow a given…
