For the solution Y of a multivariate random recurrence model Yn=AnYn-1+[zeta]n in we investigate the extremal behaviour of the process , , for with z*=1. This extends results for positive matrices An. Moreover, we obtain explicit representations of the compound Poisson limit of point processes...

This paper investigates the problem of hedging European call options using Leland's strategy in stochastic volatility markets with transaction costs. Introducing a new form for the enlarged volatility in Leland's algorithm, we establish a limit theorem and determine a convergence rate for the...

We extend the resutls for the problem of option replication under proportional transaction costs in \cite{Nguyen} to more general frameworks where stochastic volatility and jumps are combined to capture market's important features. In particular, we study the hedging error due to discrete...

We consider an insurance risk model for the cashflow of an insurance company, which invests its reserve into a portfolio consisting of risky and riskless assets. The price of the risky asset is modeled by an exponential Lévy process. We derive the integrated risk process and the corresponding...

We consider a continuous-time stochastic optimization problem with infinite horizon, linear dynamics, and cone constraints which includes as a particular case portfolio selection problems under transaction costs for models of stock and currency markets. Using an appropriate geometric formalism...

We present a new model for the electricity spot price dynamics, which is able to capture seasonality, low-frequency dynamics and extreme spikes in the market. Instead of the usual purely deterministic trend we introduce a non-stationary independent increment process for the low-frequency...

We suggest three superpositions of COGARCH (sup-CO-GARCH) volatility processes driven by Lévy processes or Lévy bases. We investigate second-order properties, jump behaviour, and prove that they exhibit Pareto-like tails. Corresponding price processes are defined and studied. We find that the...
