Taking a portfolio perspective on option pricing and hedging, we show that within the standard Black-Scholes-Merton framework large portfolios of options can be hedged without risk in discrete time. The nature of the hedge portfolio in the limit of large portfolio size is substantially different...

The choice of time as a discrete or continuous variable may radically affect the stability of equilibrium in an endogenous growth model with durable consumption. In the continuous-time model the steady state is locally saddle-path stable with monotonic convergence. However, in the discrete-time...

Economists model time as continuous or discrete. The recent literature on continuous time models with delays should help to bridge the gap between these two families of models. In this note, we propose a simple time–to–build model in continuous time, and show that a discrete time version is...
