We consider a market consisting of multiple assets under jump-diffusion dynamics with European style options written on these assets. It is well-known that such markets are incomplete in the Harrison and Pliska sense. We derive a pricing relation by adopting a Radon-Nikodym derivative based on...

This paper considers a class of Heath-Jarrow-Morton term structure models with stochastic volatility. These models admit transformations to Markovian systems, and consequently lend themselves to well-established solution techniques for the bond and bond option prices. Solutions for certain...

In this paper, a class of forward rate dependent Markovian transformations of the Heth-Jarrow-Morton [HJM92] term structure model are obtained by considering volatility processes that are solutions of linear ordinary differential equations. These transformations generalise the Markovian system...

This paper considers the problem of numerically evaluating American option prices when the dynamics of the underlying are driven by both stochastic volatility following the square root process of Heston (1993), and by a Poisson jump process of the type originally introduced by Merton (1976). We...

This paper briefly surveys the various approaches to modelling the zero coupon yield curve is the starting point for much finance research. The method adopted here for the Australian Treasury bond data is based upon polynomial spline fitting, but with the constraint that the long end of the term...

In this paper we investigate, from the numerical perspective, the 18D core dynamics of a theoretical 39D representation of an applied disequilibium model of monetary growth of a small open economy. After considering the model from the viewpoint of national accounting, we provide a compact...

This paper considers the evaluation of derivative security prices within the Heath-Jarrow-Morton framework of stochastic interest rates, such as bond options. Within this framework, the stochastic dynamics driving prices are in general non-Markovian. Hence, in principle the partial differential...

A number of recent emirical studies cast some doubt on the random walk theory of asset prices and suggest these display significant transitory components and complex chaotic motion. This paper analyses a model of fundamentalists and chartists which can generate a number of dynamic regimes which...

A class of volatility functions for the forward rate process is considered, which allows the bond price dynamics in the Heath-Jarrow-Morton (HJM) framework to be reduced to a finite dimensional Markovian system. The use of this Markovian system in estimation of parameters of the volatility...
