A new numerical scheme for conservation equations based on evolution by asynchronous discrete events is presented. During each event of the scheme only two cells of the underlying Cartesian grid are active, and an event is processed as the…
We study the strong convergence order of the Euler-Maruyama scheme for scalar stochastic differential equations with additive noise and irregular drift. We provide a general framework for the error analysis by reducing it to a weighted…
We investigate which jump-diffusion models are convexity preserving. The study of convexity preserving models is motivated by monotonicity results for such models in the volatility and in the jump parameters. We give a necessary condition…
We consider the compressible Euler system with anelastic scaling, modeling isentropic flows under the influence of gravity. In the zero-Mach-number limit, the solution of the compressible Euler system converges to a variable density…
It is well known that the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) stochastic model to study the term structure of interest rates, as introduced in 1985, is inadequate for modelling the current market environment with negative short interest rates.…
Jump diffusion processes are widely used to model asset prices over time, mainly for their ability to capture complex discontinuous behavior, but inference on the model parameters remains a challenge. Here our goal is posterior inference on…
We present new high order approximations schemes for the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) process that are obtained by using a recent technique developed by Alfonsi and Bally (2021) for the approximation of semigroups. The idea consists in using a…

The increment ratio (IR) statistic was first defined and studied in Surgailis {\it et al.} (2007) for estimating the memory parameter either of a stationary or an increment stationary Gaussian process. Here three extensions are proposed in…
We study a one-dimensional exclusion process with a fixed jump length $I \ge 1$ in which a particle may advance or retreat $I$ sites provided all intermediate sites are vacant, with hopping rates of Arrhenius type depending on the local…
The main objective of this work is to test whether some stochastic models typically used in financial markets could be applied to the COVID-19 pandemic. To this end we have implemented the ARIMAX and Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) models…
We extend the Lindquist-Rachev (LR) option-pricing framework--which values derivatives in markets lacking a traded risk-free bond--by introducing common Levy jump dynamics across two risky assets. The resulting endogenous "shadow" short…
This work approaches the problem of computing incremental $\ell_1$ and $\ell_\infty$ gains for discrete-time positive systems in \lure feedback with static memoryless nonlinearities, and regulating the $\ell_\infty$ gain through the design…
In this paper, we are interested in positivity-preserving approximations of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with non-Lipschitz coefficients, arising from computational finance and possessing positive solutions. By leveraging a…
Consider a spectrally positive Stable($1+\alpha$) process whose jumps we interpret as lifetimes of individuals. We mark the jumps by continuous excursions assigning "sizes" varying during the lifetime. As for Crump-Mode-Jagers processes…
This paper addresses the stabilization problem of stochastic jump systems (SJSs) closed by a generally sampled controller. Because of the controller's switching and state both sampled, it is challenging to study its stabilization. A new…
