This paper is concerned with option pricing in an incomplete market driven by a jump-diffusion process. We price options according to the principle of utility indifference. Our main contribution is an efficient multi-nomial tree method for computing the utility indifference prices for both...

This paper presents a numerical study for the peristaltic flow characteristics of a Sisko fluid in a symmetric or asymmetric channel. The fluid is assumed to be electrically conducting in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. The mathematical formulation consisting of nonlinear governing...

This paper deals with the optimal stopping problem under partial observation for piecewise-deterministic Markov processes. We first obtain a recursive formulation of the optimal filter process and derive the dynamic programming equation of the partially observed optimal stopping problem. Then,...

In this paper, we set out the JEM (Japanese Economic Model), a large macroeconomic model of the Japanese Economy. Although the JEM is a theoretical model designed with a view to overcoming the Lucas (1976) critique of traditional large macroeconomic models, it can also be used for both...

The paper presents a simple but efficient new numerical scheme for the integration of nonlinear constitutive equations. Although it can be used for the integration of a system of algebraic and differential equations in general, the scheme is primarily developed for use with the direct solution...

We consider the problem of modeling traffic phenomena at a macroscopic level. Increasing availability of streaming probe data allowing the observation of non-stationary traffic motivates the development of models capable of leveraging this information. We propose a phase transition model of...

Shallow north part of the Caspian Sea is part of the most important region of the Caspian Sea. The Northeast part, especially its coastal zone, is unexplored areas of the Caspian Sea. In last years the north part of the Caspian Sea became one of the main sources of pollution of the whole sea....

This article presents the results obtained from the analysis of the I–V electrical characteristics of photovoltaic arrays that were tested in a region of the Sahara. Experiments were carried out at Adrar in the southern part of Algeria. The study includes the determination of the most...

In this paper, an artificial neural network-based genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) model was developed for generating the sizing curve of stand-alone photovoltaic (SAPV) systems. Firstly, a numerical method is used for generating the sizing curves for different loss of load probability (LLP)...
