Except for the geometric Brownian model and the geometric Poissonian model, the general geometric Lévy market models are incomplete models and there are many equivalent martingale measures. In this paper we suggest to enlarge the market by a series of very special assets (power-jump assets)...

We consider the problem of optimal investment in a risky asset, and in derivatives written on the price process of this asset, when the underlying asset price process is a pure jump Lévy process. The duality approach of Karatzas and Shreve is used to derive the optimal consumption and...

Stochastic volatility and jumps are viewed as arising from Brownian subordination given here by an independent purely discontinuous process and we inquire into the relation between the realized variance or quadratic variation of the process and the time change. The class of models considered...

This paper extends the known results on the equivalence between market completeness and the uniqueness of martingale measures for finite asset economies, to the infinite asset case. Our arguments employ results from the theory of linear operators between locally convex topological vector spaces....
