    Notes: We study a problem posed in Bj"ork and Christensen (1999): Does there exist any nontrivial interest rate model that is consistent with the Nelson–Siegel family? They show that within the Heath–Jarrow–Morton framework with deterministic volatility structure the answer is no.In this paper we give a generalized version of this result including stochastic volatility structure. For that purpose we introduce the class of consistent state space processes, which have the property to provide an arbitrage-free interest rate model when representing the parameters of the Nelson–Siegel family. We characterize the consistent state space Itô processes in terms of their drift and diffusion coefficients. By solving an inverse problem we find their explicit form. It turns out that there exists no nontrivial interest rate model driven by a consistent state space Itô process.

    Notes: In this paper we briefly present the results obtained in our paper (Talay and Zheng 2002a) on the convergence rate of the approximation of quantiles of the law of one component of (Xt), where (Xt) is a diffusion process, when one uses a Monte Carlo method combined with the Euler discretization scheme. We consider the case where (Xt) is uniformly hypoelliptic (in the sense of Condition (UH) below), or the inverse of the Malliavin covariance of the component under consideration satisfies the condition (M) below. We then show that Condition (M) seems widely satisfied in applied contexts. We particularly study financial applications: the computation of quantiles of models with stochastic volatility, the computation of the VaR of a portfolio, and the computation of a model risk measurement for the profit and loss of a misspecified hedging strategy.

    Notes: The aim of this paper is to compute the quadratic error of a discrete time-hedging strategy in a complete multidimensional model. This result extends that of Gobet and Temam (2001) and Zhang (1999). More precisely, our basic assumption is that the asset prices satisfy the d-dimensional stochastic differential equation dXit=Xit(bi(Xt)dt+σi,j(Xt)dWjt). We precisely describe the risk of this strategy with respect to n, the number of rebalancing times. The rates of convergence obtained are 〈inlineGraphic alt="inline image" href="urn:x-wiley:09601627:MAFI014:MAFI_014_mu1" location="equation/MAFI_014_mu1.gif"/〉 for any options with Lipschitz payoff and 1/n1/4 for options with irregular payoff.

    Notes: The numerical quantization method is a grid method that relies on the approximation of the solution to a nonlinear problem by piecewise constant functions. Its purpose is to compute a large number of conditional expectations along the path of the associated diffusion process. We give here an improvement of this method by describing a first-order scheme based on piecewise linear approximations. Main ingredients are correction terms in the transition probability weights. We emphasize the fact that in the case of optimal quantization, many of these correcting terms vanish. We think that this is a strong argument to use it. The problem of pricing and hedging American options is investigated and a priori estimates of the errors are proposed.

    Notes: Geometric analysis of iterated cross-volatilities of asset prices is adopted to assess the stability of the (risk-free) measure under infinitesimal perturbations. Perturbations of asset prices evolve through time according to an ordinary linear differential equation (hedged transfer). The decay (feedback) rate is explicitly computed through a Fourier series method implemented on high frequency time series.

    Notes: In this paper we consider a Black and Scholes economy and investigate two approaches to hedging contingent claims. We show that the general Malliavin calculus approach can generate the classical Δ-hedging formula under weaker conditions.

    Notes: This paper reexamines the Malliavin weighting functions introduced by Fournié et al. (1999) as a new method for efficient and fast computations of the Greeks. Reexpressing the weighting function generator in terms of its Skorohod integrand, we show that these weighting functions have to satisfy necessary and sufficient conditions expressed as conditional expectations. We then derive the weighting function with the smallest total variance. This is of particular interest as it bridges the method of Malliavin weights and the one of likelihood ratio, as introduced by Broadie and Glasserman (1996). The likelihood ratio is precisely the weighting function with the smallest total variance. We finally examine when to use the Malliavin method and when to prefer finite difference.

    Notes: In a market driven by a Lévy martingale, we consider a claim ξ. We study the problem of minimal variance hedging and we give an explicit formula for the minimal variance portfolio in terms of Malliavin derivatives. We discuss two types of stochastic (Malliavin) derivatives for ξ: one based on the chaos expansion in terms of iterated integrals with respect to the power jump processes and one based on the chaos expansion in terms of iterated integrals with respect to the Wiener process and the Poisson random measure components. We study the relation between these two expansions, the corresponding two derivatives, and the corresponding versions of the Clark-Haussmann-Ocone theorem.

    Notes: Starting from a simple supply/demand model for electricity, we obtain a diffusion (i.e., jumpless) model for spot prices which can exhibit price spikes. We estimate the parameters in the model using historical data from the Alberta and California markets. and compare this model with some others used for spot prices.

    Notes: We relate the theory of passport options with general principles from martingale theory as well as with the theory of Bessel processcs. The calculation of the price of a passport option leads to an equality between two norms on continuous martingales. We also solve the discrete time case for passport options.
