Credit default swap (CDS) has become one of the most actively traded credit derivatives, and its importance in finance markets has increased after the subprime crisis. In this study, we analyzed the correlation structure of credit risks embedded in CDS and the influence of the subprime crisis on...

Two-phase phenomenon in financial markets can be described as a herding model. In our research, linear property products, 713 stocks and KOSPI 200 futures, show an out-of-equilibrium phase. Non-linear property financial instruments, KOSPI 200 option, however, have different characteristics...

Quantum finance successfully implements the imperfectly correlated fluctuation of forward interest rates at different maturities, by replacing the Wiener process with a two-dimensional quantum field. Interest rate derivatives can be priced at a more realistic value under this new framework. The...

We analyze the dynamics of the implied volatility surface of KOSPI 200 futures options from random matrix theory. To extract the informative data, we use random matrix criteria. Implied volatility data have a colossal eigenvalue, and the order of eigenvalues in a noisy regime is distinguishably...

Understanding the dependence structure between the commodity and stock markets is a crucial issue in constructing a portfolio. It can also help us to discover new opportunities to implement spread trading using multiple assets classified in the two different markets. This study analyzed the...

We study the cross-correlations of buy and sell volumes on the Korean stock market in high frequency. We observe that the pulling effects of volumes are as small as that of returns. The properties of the correlations of buy and sell volumes differ. They are explained by the degree of...

This paper analyzes the evolution of the dependence structure for various time window intervals, known as Epps effect, using the Trade and Quote data of 663 actively traded stocks in Korean stock market. It is found that the random matrix theory analysis could not represent the dependence...

We analyzed the dependence structure of the credit and stock market using random matrix theory and network topology. The dynamics of both markets have been spotlighted throughout the subprime crisis. In this study, we compared these two markets in view of the market-wide effect from random...
