In this paper we consider a market driven by a Wiener process where there is an insider and a regular trader. The insider has privileged information which has been deformed by an independent noise vanishing as the revelation time approaches. At this time, the information of every trader is the...

We consider financial markets with agents exposed to an external source of risk which cannot be hedged through investments on the capital market alone. The sources of risk we think of may be weather and climate. Therefore we face a typical example of an incomplete financial market. We design a...

We consider financial market models based on Wiener space with two agents on different information levels: a regular agent whose information is contained in the natural filtration of the Wiener process W, and an insider who possesses some extra information from the beginning of the trading...

Let X be a semimartingale, perturbed by a process V of bounded variation, but with completely arbitrary measurability properties. We prove that if V is twice continuously differentiable such that its second derivative is Hölder continuous of order , then the perturbed process X + V possesses...

We consider backward stochastic differential equations with drivers of quadratic growth (qgBSDE). We prove several statements concerning path regularity and stochastic smoothness of the solution processes of the qgBSDE, in particular we prove an extension of Zhang's path regularity theorem to...

Let M be a 4N-integrable, real-valued continuous N-parameter strong martingale. By extending Itô-type formulas for M to a function whose 2Nth derivative is Dirac's [delta]-distribution, Tanaka-type formulas for M are obtained. They represent local time of M with respect to occupation time...

Let M be a square integrable martingale indexed by [0, 1]2 with respect to a filtration which possesses the property of conditional independence. Assume that M has trajectories which are continuous for approach from the right upper quadrant and possess limits for the remaining three. M can have...

In this paper we study BSDEs arising from a special class of backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs) that is intimately related to utility maximization problems with respect to arbitrary utility functions. After providing existence and uniqueness we discuss the numerical...
