An ambiguity averse decision-maker contemplates investment of a fixed size capital into a project with a stochastic profit stream under the Knightian uncertainty. Multiple priors are modeled as a ``cloud" of diffusion processes with embedded compound Poisson jumps. The ``cloud" contains the...

We study a stochastic version of Fudenberg--Tirole's preemption game. Two firms contemplate entering a new market with stochastic demand. Firms differ in sunk costs of entry. If the demand process has no upward jumps, the low cost firm enters first, and the high cost firm follows. If leader's...

This paper provides a general framework for pricing of real options in continuous time for wide classes of payoff streams that are functions of Levy processes. As applications, we calculate the option values of multi-stage investment/disinvestment problems (sequences of embedded options, which...

A general framework for pricing of real options in continuous time for wide classes of payoff streams that are monotone functions of a Levy process is provided. Exercise rules are formulated in terms of statistics of record-setting low payoffs and can be viewed as an extension of Bernanke's bad...

We consider the Heston model with the stochastic interest rate of the CIR type and more general models with stochastic volatility and interest rates depending on two CIR - factors. Time derivative and infinitesimal generator of the process for factors that determine the dynamics of the interest...

A general numerical method for pricing American options in regime switching jump diffusion models of stock dynamics with stochastic interest rates and/or volatility is developed. Time derivative and infinitesimal generator of the process for factors that determine the dynamics of the interest...

In the paper, we solve the pricing problem for American options in Markov-modulated Levy models. The early exercise boundaries and prices are calculated using a generalization of Carr's randomization for regime-switching models. The pricing procedure is efficient even if the number of states is...
