We consider the linear-impact case in the continuous-time market impact model with transient price impact proposed by Gatheral (2008). In this model, the absence of price manipulation in the sense of Huberman and Stanzl (2004) can easily be characterized by means of Bochner's theorem. This...

Market impact models describe the feedback of trading strategies on the underlying asset prices. The resulting feedback effects lead to interesting questions of stability and regularity, which are closely related to the existence and behavior of strategies for optimal order execution. In this...

The viability of a market impact model is usually considered to be equivalent to the absence of price manipulation strategies in the sense of Huberman & Stanzl (2004). By analyzing a model with linear instantaneous, transient, and permanent impact components, we discover a new class of...

With an alternative choice of risk criterion, we solve the HJB equation explicitly to find a closed-form solution for the optimal trade execution strategy in the Almgren-Chriss framework assuming the underlying unaffected stock price process is geometric Brownian motion

In this review article, we present recent work on the regularity of dynamical market impact models and their associated optimal order execution strategies. In particular, we address the question of the stability and existence of optimal strategies, showing that in a large class of models, there...
