The Skorokhod Embedding Problem (SEP) is one of the classical problems in the study of stochastic processes, with applications in many different fields (cf.~ the surveys \cite{Ob04,Ho11}). Many of these applications have natural…
The Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) is to represent a given probability measure as a Brownian motion $B$ at a particular stopping time. In recent years particular attention has gone to solutions which exhibit additional optimality…
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…
We obtain bounds on the distribution of the maximum of a martingale with fixed marginals at finitely many intermediate times. The bounds are sharp and attained by a solution to $n$-marginal Skorokhod embedding problem in Ob{\l}\'oj and…
Most results regarding Skorokhod embedding problems (SEP) so far rely on the assumption that the corresponding stopped process is uniformly integrable, which is equivalent to the convex ordering condition…
We solve the $n$-marginal Skorokhod embedding problem for a continuous local martingale and a sequence of probability measures $\mu_1,...,\mu_n$ which are in convex order and satisfy an additional technical assumption. Our construction is…
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 consider the problem of superhedging under volatility uncertainty for an investor allowed to dynamically trade the underlying asset, and statically trade European call options for all possible strikes with some given maturity. This…
The classical Skorokhod embedding problem for a Brownian motion $W$ asks to find a stopping time $\tau$ so that $W_\tau$ is distributed according to a prescribed probability distribution $\mu$. Many solutions have been proposed during the…
We study the problem of stopping a Brownian motion at a given distribution $\nu$ while optimizing a reward function that depends on the (possibly randomized) stopping time and the Brownian motion. Our first result establishes that the set…
In this paper, we provide some results on Skorokhod embedding with local time and its applications to the robust hedging problem in finance. First we investigate the robust hedging of options depending on the local time by using the…
The Skorokhod embedding problem is to represent a given probability as the distribution of Brownian motion at a chosen stopping time. Over the last 50 years this has become one of the important classical problems in probability theory and a…
It is known that the Azema-Yor solution to the Skorokhod embedding problem maximizes the law of the running maximum of an uniformly integrable martingale with given terminal value distribution. Recently this optimality property has been…
The conformal Skorokhod embedding problem (CSEP) is a planar variant of the classical problem where the solution is now a simply connected domain $D\subset\mathbb{C}$ whose exit time embeds a given probability distribution $\mu$ by…
Recently, \cite{BeJu16, BeNuTo16} established that optimizers to the martingale optimal transport problem (MOT) are concentrated on $c$-monotone sets. In this article we characterize monotonicity preserving transformations revealing certain…
The Az\'{e}ma-Yor solution (resp., the Perkins solution) of the Skorokhod embedding problem has the property that it maximizes (resp., minimizes) the law of the maximum of the stopped process. We show that these constructions have a wider…
This paper examines the Root solution of the Skorohod embedding problem given full marginals on some compact time interval. Our results are obtained by limiting arguments based on finitely-many marginals Root solution of Cox, Obl\'oj and…
We study the existence, optimality, and construction of non-randomised stopping times that solve the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for Markov processes which satisfy a duality assumption. These stopping times are hitting times of…
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…
