Options are believed to contain unique information about the risk-neutral moment generating function (MGF hereafter) or the risk-neutral probability density function (PDF hereafter). This paper applies the wavelet method to approximate the risk-neutral MGF of the underlying asset from option...

This paper extends Meyer's (1987) location-scale family with general n random seed sources. Firstly, we clarify and generalize existing results to this multivariate setting. Some useful geometrical and topological properties of the location-scale expected utility functions are obtained....

This paper derives a no-trade theorem under Knightian uncertainty, which generalizes the theorem of Milgrom and Stokey (1982, Journal of Economic Theory 26, 17) by allowing general preference relations. It is shown that the no-trade theorem holds true as long as agents' preferences are...

This paper considers a heterogeneous agent Lucas style exchange economy. For a class of recursive utility functions containing the standard additive expected utility functions, I demonstrate that there exist market equilibria characterized by stationary (ergodic) Markov processes for...
