The main aim of this thesis is the development of locally risk-minimizing hedging strategies for unit-linked life insurance contracts whose unit is modeled in a general Lévy-process financial market. It therefore merges the quite advanced and in recent years developed theory of...

This paper studies a two-person trading game in continuous time that generalizes Garivaltis (2018) to allow for stock prices that both jump and diffuse. Analogous to Bell and Cover (1988) in discrete time, the players start by choosing fair randomizations of the initial dollar, by exchanging it...

The contribution of this paper is twofold: we study power utility maximization problems (with and without intermediate consumption) in a partially observed financial market with jumps and we solve by the innovation method the arising filtering problem. We consider a Markovian model where the...
