Using a Levy process we generalize formulas in Bo et al.(2010) for the Esscher transform parameters for the log-normal distribution which ensure the martingale condition holds for the discounted foreign exchange rate. Using these values of the parameters we find a risk-neural measure and provide...

The Markov-modulated (B; S)-securities market is a (B; S)-security market, consisting of riskless asset, bond B; and risky asset, stock S; in random media X; or (B; S)-security market driven by a Markov process xt 2 X: We study the pricing options for Markovmodulated fractional Brownian (B;...

We show how to solve Merton optimal investment stochastic control problem for Hawkesbased models in finance and insurance (Propositions 1 and 2), i.e., for a wealth portfolio X(t) consisting of a bond and a stock price described by general compound Hawkes process (GCHP), and for a capital R(t)...

The aim of this paper is to introduce a general bootstrap by exchangeable weight random variables for empirical estimators of the semi-Markov kernels and of the conditional transition probabilities for semi-Markov processes with countable state space. Asymptotic properties of these generalized...

We study the time evolution of an increasing stochastic process governed by a first-order stochastic differential system. This defines a particular piecewise deterministic Markov process (PDMP). We consider a Markov renewal process (MRP) associated to the PDMP and its Markov renewal equation...
