In this work the interplay between matrix biorthogonal polynomials with respect to a matrix of linear functionals, the $k$-th associated matrix polynomials and the second kind matrix functions, is studied in terms of quasideterminants. A…
In this paper we establish the associativity property of the pathwise It\^o integral in a functional setting for continuous integrators. Here, associativity refers to the computation of the It\^o differential of an It\^o integral, by means…
The functional Ito formula, firstly introduced by Bruno Dupire for continuous semimartingales, might be extended in two directions: different dynamics for the underlying process and/or weaker assumptions on the regularity of the functional.…
Motivated by applications to SPDEs we extend the It\^o formula for the square of the norm of a semimartingale $y(t)$ from Gy\"ongy and Krylov (Stochastics 6(3):153-173, 1982) to the case \begin{equation*} \sum_{i=1}^m \int_{(0,t]}…
The paper introduces and investigates the natural extension to the path-dependent setup of the usual concept of canonical Markov class introduced by Dynkin and which is at the basis of the theory of Markov processes. That extension, indexed…
We present a new approach to noncommutative stochastic calculus that is, like the classical theory, based primarily on the martingale property. Using this approach, we introduce a general theory of stochastic integration and quadratic…
In this paper we study dynamic backward problems, with the computation of conditional expectations as a main objective, in a framework where the (forward) state process satisfies a Volterra type SDE, with fractional Brownian motion as a…
We develop a non-anticipating calculus of variations for functionals on a space of laws of continuous semi-martingales, which extends the classical one. We extend Hamilton's least action principle and Noether's theorem to this generalized…
In this paper we consider a Caputo type fractional derivative with respect to another function. Some properties, like the semigroup law, a relationship between the fractional derivative and the fractional integral, Taylor's Theorem,…
Given a general It\^o semimartingale, its Markovian projection is an It\^o process, with Markovian differential characteristics, that matches the one-dimensional marginal laws of the original process. We construct Markovian projections for…
We investigate the approximation of path functionals. In particular, we advocate the use of the Karhunen-Lo\`eve expansion, the continuous analogue of Principal Component Analysis, to extract relevant information from the image of a…
Functional integrals are central to modern theories ranging from quantum mechanics and statistical thermodynamics to biology, chemistry, and finance. In this work we present a new method for calculating functional integrals based on a…
For stochastic systems driven by continuous semimartingales an explicit formula for the logarithm of the Ito flow map is given. A similar formula is also obtained for solutions of linear matrix-valued SDEs driven by arbitrary…
We define Bregman variation of semimartingales. We give its pathwise representation, It\^o-type isometry for martingales, and applications to harmonic analysis.
It is shown that under a certain condition on a semimartingale and a time-change, any stochastic integral driven by the time-changed semimartingale is a time-changed stochastic integral driven by the original semimartingale. As a direct…
The main purpose of this work is the derivation of a functional partial differential equation (FPDE) for the calculations of equity-linked insurance policies, where the payment stream may depend on the whole past history of the financial…
Motivated by extending the functional stochastic calculus, to important functionals to which it does not apply, a notion of functional derivative along a curve is introduced. This new setting is developed by incorporating path-dependent…
Based on a dyadic approximation of It\^o integrals, we show the existence of It\^o c\`adl\`ag rough paths above general semimartingales, suitable Gaussian processes and non-negative typical price paths. Furthermore, Lyons-Victoir extension…
We develop a stochastic calculus that makes it easy to capture a variety of predictable transformations of semimartingales such as changes of variables, stochastic integrals, and their compositions. The framework offers a unified treatment…
We construct rich vector spaces of continuous functions with prescribed curved or linear pathwise quadratic variations. We also construct a class of functions whose quadratic variation may depend in a local and nonlinear way on the function…
