Study analyzes price response and spread impact in foreign exchange markets.

problem Understanding deviations from Markovian behavior in foreign exchange markets.
method Detailed large-scale data analysis of price response functions for different years and time scales, using pip bid-ask spread definition.
result Large pip spreads significantly impact price response in foreign exchange markets.

In this work, we provide a framework linking microstructural properties of an asset to the tick value of the exchange. In particular, we bring to light a quantity, referred to as implicit spread, playing the role of spread for large tick assets, for which the effective spread is almost always equal to one tick. The rel…

In our empirical study, we examine the price of liquid stocks after experiencing a large intraday price change using data from the NYSE and the NASDAQ. We find significant reversal for both intraday price decreases and increases. The results are stable against varying parameters. While on the NYSE the large widening of…

Social networks offer a ready channel for fake and misleading news to spread and exert influence. This paper examines the performance of different reputation algorithms when applied to a large and statistically significant portion of the news that are spread via Twitter. Our main result is that simple crowdsourcing-bas…

Study on order book dynamics with uniform catastrophes, explaining volatility and trends.

problem Understanding volatility and trends in financial markets with different types of liquidity.
method Stochastic models and population processes with uniform catastrophes.
result Law of large numbers, central limit theorem, and large deviations proved for the model.

Given a finite set of European call option prices on a single underlying, we want to know when there is a market model which is consistent with these prices. In contrast to previous studies, we allow models where the underlying trades at a bid-ask spread. The main question then is how large (in terms of a deterministic…

Algorithm ensures fair information spread in social networks with community structure.

problem Disparities in information coverage between communities in social networks.
method Fits a model to the social network, uses community structure, and determines optimal seed allocations for fair coverage.
result Empirical accuracy demonstrated on simulated and real networks.

Financial markets show a number of non-stationarities, ranging from volatility fluctuations over ever changing technical and regulatory market conditions to seasonalities. On the other hand, financial markets show various stylized facts which are remarkably stable. It is thus an intriguing question to find out how thes…

Efficient algorithm learns Independent Cascade model from partial network observations.

problem Learning accurate spreading models from limited network data.
method Scalable dynamic message-passing approach for parameter learning.
result Improved prediction of marginal probabilities compared to original model.

A new framework maximizes influence spread in social networks by accounting for inter-community diffusion.

problem Real-world social networks have inter-community influence that is often overlooked in community-based IM approaches.
method Community-IM++ uses a heuristic based on community-based diffusion degree and progressive budgeting to model and prioritize cross-community diffusion.
result Community-IM++ achieves near-greedy influence spread at up to 100 times lower runtime than existing methods.

We establish that, over certain ground fields, the set of osculating tangents of Cayley's ruled cubic surface gives rise to a (maximal partial) spread which is also a dual (maximal partial) spread. It is precisely the Betten-Walker spreads that allow for this construction. Every infinite Betten-Walker spread is not an …

We introduce nonlinear higher-order label spreading for semi-supervised learning.

problem Efficient semi-supervised learning on graphs with complex label spreading.
method We add nonlinearity to label spreading through higher-order graph structures, proving convergence and demonstrating efficiency on various datasets.
result Our nonlinear higher-order label spreading algorithm converges to the global solution and performs favorably compared to classical methods.

Many commonly used liquidity measures are based on snapshots of the state of the limit order book (LOB) and can thus only provide information about instantaneous liquidity, and not regarding the local liquidity regime. However, trading in the LOB is characterised by many intra-day liquidity shocks, where the LOB genera…

New approximations for Asian basket spread options using stochastic Taylor expansions.

problem Pricing Asian basket spread options under the Black-Scholes model.
method Stochastic Taylor expansion applied to a log-normal proxy model.
result Highly accurate approximations for Asian and spread options, without numerical integration.

Develops a new model for collateral choice options under stochastic rates.

problem Challenges in quantifying the value of collateral choice options under stochastic rates.
method Develops a scalable and stable stochastic model of collateral spreads under conditional independence, using a common factor approximation.
result Second order model yields accurate results for the value of the collateral choice option.

The statistical properties of the bid-ask spread of a frequently traded Chinese stock listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange are investigated using the limit-order book data. Three different definitions of spread are considered based on the time right before transactions, the time whenever the highest buying price or th…

Model estimates LIBOR rates and finds COVID-19 spread spike due to credit risk.

problem Estimating LIBOR rates and understanding the factors affecting them.
method Developed a joint model for various LIBOR-related rates and used it to decompose spreads.
result Credit risk mainly caused the spike in LIBOR-OIS spread during the COVID-19 onset, with equal contributions from credit and funding-liquidity risks on average.

The term structure of credit spreads is studied with an aim to predict its future movements. A completely new approach to tackle this problem is presented, which utilizes nonlinear parametric models. The Brain-Cousens regression model with five parameters is chosen to describe the term structure of credit spreads. Furt…
