Continuous-time stochastic systems have attracted a lot of attention recently, due to their wide-spread use in finance for modelling price-dynamics. More recently models taking into accounts shocks have been developed by assuming that the…

We investigate confined L\'{e}vy flights under premises of the principle of detailed balance. The master equation admits a transformation to L\'{e}vy - Schr\"{o}dinger semigroup dynamics (akin to a mapping of the Fokker-Planck equation into…

We propose a numerical method for the valuation of European-style options under two-asset infinite-activity exponential L\'evy models. Our method extends the effective approach developed by Wang, Wan & Forsyth (2007) for the 1-dimensional…

We tackle the calibration of the so-called Stochastic-Local Volatility (SLV) model. This is the class of financial models that combines the local and stochastic volatility features and has been subject of the attention by many researchers…

We present a method of generation of exact and explicit forms of one-sided, heavy-tailed Levy stable probability distributions g_{\alpha}(x), 0 \leq x < \infty, 0 < \alpha < 1. We demonstrate that the knowledge of one such a distribution…

Modeling uncertainty in heavy-tailed time series remains a critical challenge for deep probabilistic forecasting models, which often struggle to capture abrupt, extreme events. While L\'evy stable distributions offer a natural framework for…

This paper deals with the distributed and boundary controllability of the so called Leray-$\alpha$ model. This is a regularized variant of the Navier-Stokes system ($\alpha$ is a small positive parameter) that can also be viewed as a model…
