In this study we prove the existence of statistical arbitrage opportunities in the Black-Scholes framework by considering trading strategies that consists of borrowing from the risk free rate and taking a long position in the stock until it…
In this article, we study the rate of convergence of prices when a model is approximated by some simplified model. We also provide a method how explicit error formula for more general options can be obtained if such formula is available for…
We study markets with no riskless (safe) asset. We derive the corresponding Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing equations for markets where there are only risky assets which have the following price dynamics: (i) continuous diffusions; (ii)…
One of old methods for finding exact solutions of nonlinear differential equations is considered. Modifications of the method are discussed. Application of the method is illustrated for finding exact solutions of the Fisher equation and…
We establish the existence of strong solutions to a class of nonlinear strongly coupled and uniform elliptic systems consisting of more than two equations. The existence of of nontrivial and non constant solutions (or pattern formations)…
Model uncertainties and simulation uncertainties occur in mathematical modeling of multiscale complex systems, since some mechanisms or scales are not represented (i.e., "unresolved") due to lack in our understanding of these mechanisms or…
The existence of a formal particular solution (family of solutions) of oscillating type under certain conditions has been proved for the quasi-linear ordinary differential equations system. The asymptotic nature of this solution (the family…
Since the introduction of the Black-Scholes model stochastic processes have played an increasingly important role in mathematical finance. In many cases prices, volatility and other quantities can be modeled using stochastic ordinary…
In common finance literature, Black-Scholes partial differential equation of option pricing is usually derived with no-arbitrage principle. Considering an asset market, Merton applied the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman techniques of his…
In this paper, we investigate the non-linear Black--Scholes equation: $$u_t+ax^2u_{xx}+bx^3u_{xx}^2+c(xu_x-u)=0,\quad a,b>0,\ c\geq0.$$ and show that the one can be reduced to the equation $$u_t+(u_{xx}+u_x)^2=0$$ by an appropriate point…
Conventional finite-difference schemes for solving partial differential equations are based on approximating derivatives by finite-differences. In this work, an alternative theory is proposed which view finite-difference schemes as…
We recently showed that the S&P500 stock market index is well described by Tsallis non-extensive statistics and nonlinear Fokker-Planck time evolution. We argued that these results should be applicable to a broad range of markets and…
In this study, we propose high-order implicit and semi-implicit schemes for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) based on Taylor series expansion. These methods are designed to handle stiff and non-stiff components within a…
Closed form option pricing formulae explaining skew and smile are obtained within a parsimonious non-Gaussian framework. We extend the non-Gaussian option pricing model of L. Borland (Quantitative Finance, {\bf 2}, 415-431, 2002) to include…
We study a financial model with a non-trivial price impact effect. In this model we consider the interaction of a large investor trading in an illiquid security, and a market maker who is quoting prices for this security. We assume that the…
A numerical explicit method to evaluates transient solutions of linear partial differential inhomogeneous equation with constant coefficients is proposed. A general form of the scheme for a specific linear inhomogeneous equation is shown.…
In this work, we give a generalized formulation of the Black-Scholes model. The novelty resides in considering the Black-Scholes model to be valid on 'average', but such that the pointwise option price dynamics depends on a measure…
We present a family of explicit solutions for a nonlinear classical vector model with anisotropic Heisenberg-like interaction on the triangular lattice.
We show how to derive the Black-Scholes model and its generalisation to the `exchange-option' (to exchange one asset for another) via the continuum limit of the Binomial tree. No knowledge of stochastic calculus or partial differential…
We study option pricing and hedging with uncertainty about a Black-Scholes reference model which is dynamically recalibrated to the market price of a liquidly traded vanilla option. For dynamic trading in the underlying asset and this…
