A form of the Laplace transform is reviewed as a paradigm for an entire class of fractional functional transforms. Various of its properties are discussed. Such transformations should be useful in application to differential/integral…
This paper develops general approaches for pricing various types of American-style Parisian options (down-in/-out, perpetual/finite-maturity) with general payoff functions based on continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) approximation under…
This paper derives a new semi closed-form approximation formula for pricing an up-and-out barrier option under a certain type of stochastic volatility model including SABR model by applying a rigorous asymptotic expansion method developed…
The traditional theory of Laplace transformation in its currently prevalent form is unsatisfactory. Its deficiencies can be traced back to a mismatch of the definition intervals of the original function and of the inverse L-transform. A new…
We present two new proofs of the exchange theorem for the Laplace transformation of vector-valued distributions. We then derive an explicit solution to the Dirichlet problem of the polyharmonic operator in a half-space. Finally, we obtain…
We develop a conditional sampling scheme for pricing knock-out barrier options under the Linear Transformations (LT) algorithm from Imai and Tan (2006). We compare our new method to an existing conditional Monte Carlo scheme from Glasserman…
In this paper we establish different representations of the so-called Yor integral, which is one of the key ingredient in mathematical finance, in particular, to compute normalized prices of Asian options. We show, that the Yor integral is…
Statistical applications often involve the calculation of intractable multidimensional integrals. The Laplace formula is widely used to approximate such integrals. However, in high-dimensional or small sample size problems, the shape of the…
Spaces of differential forms over configuration spaces with Poisson measures are constructed. The corresponding Laplacians (of Bochner and de Rham type) on forms and associated semigroups are considered. Their probabilistic interpretation…
We present an approach for pricing European call options in presence of proportional transaction costs, when the stock price follows a general exponential L\'{e}vy process. The model is a generalization of the celebrated work of Davis,…
The Laplace approximation is an old, but frequently used method to approximate integrals for Bayesian calculations. In this paper we develop an extension of the Laplace approximation, by applying it iteratively to the residual, i.e., the…
This paper is based on the author's talk at the 2012 Workshop on Geometric Methods in Physics held in Bialowieza, Poland. The aim of the talk is to introduce the audience to the Eynard-Orantin topological recursion. The formalism is…
This article is devoted to derivation of the Laplace transforms of the derivatives with respect to parameters of certain special functions, namely, the Mittag-Leffler type, Wright and Le Roy type functions. These formulas show…
Under the assumption of finite energy, positive solutions to the critical p-Laplace equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $1< p<n$ have been classified completely by moving plane method. In this paper, the author provide a new approach to obtain…
In this paper, we begin by applying the Laplace transform to derive closed forms for several challenging integrals that seem nearly impossible to evaluate. By utilizing the solution to the Pythagorean equation $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$, these…
An important class of fractional differential and integral operators is given by the theory of fractional calculus with respect to functions, sometimes called $\Psi$-fractional calculus. The operational calculus approach has proved useful…
Starting from a remark about the computation of Kashiwara-Schapira's enhanced Laplace transform by using the Dolbeault complex of enhanced distributions, we explain how to obtain explicit holomorphic Paley-Wiener-type theorems. As an…
The Laplace transform method for solving of a wide class of initial value problems for fractional differential equations is introduced. The method is based on the Laplace transform of the Mittag-Leffler function in two parameters. To extend…
We show that an estimate by de la Pe\~na, Ibragimov and Jordan for $\mathbb{E}(X-c)^+$, with $c$ a constant and $X$ a random variable of which the mean, the variance, and $\mathbb{P}(X \leq c)$ are known, implies an estimate by Scarf on the…
In this paper we provide a probabilistic representation of Lagrange's identity which we use to obtain Papathanasiou-type variance expansions of arbitrary order. Our expansions lead to generalized sequences of weights which depend on an…
