We present a numerical framework to approximate the $\mu$-domain in the planar Skorokhod embedding problem (PSEP), recently appeared in \cite{gross2019}. Our approach investigates the continuity and convergence properties of the solutions…

We solve the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for a general time-homogeneous diffusion $X$: given a distribution $\rho$, we construct a stopping time $\tau$ such that the stopped process $X_{\tau}$ has the distribution $\rho$. Our solution…
We solve the Skorokhod embedding problem for a class of stochastic processes satisfying an inhomogeneous stochastic differential equation (SDE) of the form $d A_t =\mu (t, A_t) d t + \sigma(t, A_t) d W_t$. We provide sufficient conditions…
We revisit the planar Skorokhod embedding problem introduced by Gross and developed further by Boudabra-Markowsky, and we place it in a fully variational framework. For a centered probability measure $\mu$ with finite second moment, we show…

Suppose $X$ is a time-homogeneous diffusion on an interval $I^X \subseteq \mathbb R$ and let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $I^X$. Then $\tau$ is a solution of the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for $\mu$ in $X$ if $\tau$ is a…
In this paper we consider a connection between the famous Skorohod embedding problem and the Shiryaev inverse problem for the first hitting time distribution of a Brownian motion: given a probability distribution, $F$, find a boundary such…
We provide a complete characterisation of the Root solution to the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) by means of an optimal stopping formulation. Our methods are purely probabilistic and the analysis relies on a tailored time-reversal…
The Skorokhod embedding problem aims to represent a given probability measure on the real line as the distribution of Brownian motion stopped at a chosen stopping time. In this paper, we consider an extension of the optimal Skorokhod…

In this article, we consider a generalisation of the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) with a delayed starting time. In the delayed SEP, we look for stopping times which embed a given measure in a stochastic process, which occur after a…
In this paper we consider the Skorokhod embedding problem for target distributions with non-zero mean. In the zero-mean case, uniform integrability provides a natural restriction on the class of embeddings, but this is no longer suitable…
