We study in detail and explicitly solve the version of Kyle's model introduced in a specific case in \cite{BB}, where the trading horizon is given by an exponentially distributed random time. The first part of the paper is devoted to the…

In this paper, we explore quantitative stability of multi-marginal Schr\"odinger bridges with respect to the marginal constraints. We focus on the case where the number of marginal constraints is large (i.e. ``many-marginals"). When this…

We establish the stability of solutions to the entropically regularized optimal transport problem with respect to the marginals and the cost function. The result is based on the geometric notion of cyclical invariance and inspired by the…

A Schr\"odinger bridge is the most probable time-dependent probability distribution that connects an initial probability distribution $w_{i}$ to a final one $w_{f}$. The problem has been solved and widely used for the case of simple…

In the dynamic discrete-time trading setting of Kyle (1985), we prove that Kyle's equilibrium model is stable when there are one or two trading times. For three or more trading times, we prove that Kyle's equilibrium is not stable. These…

We study a semimartingale optimal transport problem interpolating between the Schr\"odinger bridge and the stretched Brownian motion associated with the Bass solution of the Skorokhod embedding problem. The cost combines an entropy term on…

Generative AI can be framed as the problem of learning a model that maps simple reference measures into complex data distributions, and it has recently found a strong connection to the classical theory of the Schr\"odinger bridge problems…

In this paper we study the problem of stopping a Brownian bridge $X$ in order to maximise the expected value of an exponential gain function. In particular, we solve the stopping problem $$\sup_{0\le \tau\le…

This work studies the Schr\"odinger bridge problem for the kinematic equation on a compact connected Lie group. The objective is to steer a controlled diffusion between given initial and terminal densities supported over the Lie group while…

We present a new method to sample conditioned trajectories of a system evolving under Langevin dynamics, based on Brownian bridges. The trajectories are conditioned to end at a certain point (or in a certain region) in space. The bridge…

The purpose of the present work is to expand substantially the type of control and estimation problems that can be addressed following the paradigm of Schr\"odinger bridges, by incorporating termination (killing) of stochastic flows.…

The main purpose of this paper is to extend the information-based asset-pricing framework of Brody-Hughston-Macrina to a more general set-up. We include a wider class of models for market information and in contrast to the original paper,…

This paper considers a continuous time Kyle-Back model which is a game problem between an insider and a market marker. The existing literature typically focuses on the existence of equilibrium by using the PDE approach, which requires…

We take a new look at the relation between the optimal transport problem and the Schr\"{o}dinger bridge problem from the stochastic control perspective. We show that the connections are richer and deeper than described in existing…

We prove a property of Brownian bridges whose certain time-equidistant sequences of points are pairwise coupled by an interaction. Roughly saying, if the total time span $t$ of the bridge tends to infinity while the distance of its end…
