We study partial information, possibly non-Markovian, singular stochastic control of Itô--Lévy processes and obtain general maximum principles. The results are used to find connections between singular stochastic control, reflected BSDEs and optimal stopping in the partial information case. As...

We consider some robust optimal portfolio problems for markets modeled by (possibly non-Markovian) jump diffusions. Mathematically the situation can be described as a stochastic differential game, where one of the players (the agent) is trying to find the portfolio which maximizes the utility of...

We use the Itô-Ventzell formula for forward integrals and Malliavin calculus to study the stochastic control problem associated to utility indifference pricing in a market driven by Lévy processes. This approach allows us to consider general possibly non-Markovian systems, general utility...

This paper studies the superhedging prices and the associated superhedging strategies for European and American options in a non-linear incomplete market with default. We present the seller's and the buyer's point of view. The underlying market model consists of a risk-free asset and a risky...

We study optimal equity infusions into a financial system represented as a hierarchical network with two classes of banks, prone to both the risk of insolvencies and the risk of runs by short term creditors. The government seeks to minimize, under budget constraints, the magnitude of the total...

We consider a general tractable model for default contagion and systemic risk in a heterogeneous financial network, subject to an exogenous macroeconomic shock. We show that, under some regularity assumptions, the default cascade model could be transferred to a death process problem represented...
