An extension of the Heath--Jarrow--Morton model for the development of instantaneous forward interest rates with deterministic coefficients and Gaussian as well as L\'evy field noise terms is given. In the special case where the L\'evy…
This note studies a certain stochastic evolution equation in the space of probability measures, including existence and uniqueness results. A solution of this equation gives rise, in a natural way, to an interest rate term structure model,…
In the spirit of Bj\"ork-DiMasi-Kabanov-Runggaldier, we investigate term structure models driven by Wiener process and Poisson measures with forward curve dependent volatilities. This includes a full existence and uniqueness proof for the…
The problem of existence of arbitrage free and monotone CDO term structure models is studied. Conditions for positivity and monotonicity of the corresponding Heath-Jarrow-Morton-Musiela equation for the $x$-forward rates with the use of the…
We develop a unified framework for modeling multiple term structures arising in financial, insurance, and energy markets, adopting an extended Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) approach under the real-world probability. We study market viability…
Existence of solutions to the Heath-Jarrow-Morton equation of the bond market with linear volatility and general L\'evy random factor is studied. Conditions for existence and non-existence of solutions in the class of bounded fields are…
We consider a market with a term structure of credit risky bonds in the single-name case. We aim at minimal assumptions extending existing results in this direction: first, the random field of forward rates is driven by a general…
In this paper we provide the characterization of all finite-dimensional Heath--Jarrow--Morton models that admit arbitrary initial yield curves. It is well known that affine term structure models with time-dependent coefficients (such as the…
The paper studies the Heath-Jarrow-Morton-Musiela equation of the bond market. The equation is analyzed in weighted spaces of functions defined on $[0,+\infty)$. Sufficient conditions for local and global existence are obtained . For…
We investigate the existence of affine realizations for term structure models driven by L\'evy processes. It turns out that we obtain more severe restrictions on the volatility than in the classical diffusion case without jumps. As special…
We develop a novel - cylindrical - solution concept for stochastic evolution equations. Our motivation is to establish a Heath-Jarrow-Morton framework capable of analysing financial term structures with discontinuities, overcoming deep…
This paper aims at transferring the philosophy behind Heath-Jarrow-Morton to the modelling of call options with all strikes and maturities. Contrary to the approach by Carmona and Nadtochiy (2009) and related to the recent contribution…
A market with defaultable bonds where the bond dynamics is in a Heath-Jarrow-Morton setting and the forward rates are driven by an infinite number of Levy factors is considered. The setting includes rating migrations driven by a Markov…
We derive explicit valuation formulae for an exotic path-dependent interest rate derivative, namely an option on the composition of LIBOR rates. The formulae are based on Fourier transform methods for option pricing. We consider two models…
The problem of existence of solution for the Heath-Jarrow-Morton equation with linear volatility and purely jump random factor is studied. Sufficient conditions for existence and non-existence of the solution in the class of bounded fields…
We consider the Heath-Jarrow-Morton model of forward rates processes with linear volatility. The noise is either a Wiener or a pure jump Leevy process. We provide formulae for the forward rate processes, and discus the problem of their…
We study the problems of consistency and of the existence of finite-dimensional realizations for multi-curve interest rate models of Heath-Jarrow-Morton type, generalizing the geometric approach developed by T. Bj\"ork and co-authors in the…
As a consequence of the financial crises, risk management became more important and real-world dynamics of interest-rate models moved into the focus of interest. Since risk-neutral dynamics are classically important to compute prices of…
We use path integrals to calculate hedge parameters and efficacy of hedging in a quantum field theory generalization of the Heath, Jarrow and Morton (HJM) term structure model which parsimoniously describes the evolution of imperfectly…
A new test of a wide class of interest rate models is proposed and applied to a recently developed quantum field theoretic model and the industry standard Heath-Jarrow-Morton model. This test is independent of the volatility function unlike…
