I study the limit of a large random economy, where a set of consumers invests in financial instruments engineered by banks, in order to optimize their future consumption. This exercise shows that, even in the ideal case of perfect competition, where full information is available to all market participants, the equilibr…

Two markets should be considered isomorphic if they are financially indistinguishable. We define a notion of isomorphism for financial markets in both discrete and continuous time. We then seek to identify the distinct isomorphism classes, that is to classify markets. We classify complete one-period markets. We define …

The completeness problem of the bond market model with the random factors determined by a Wiener process and Poisson random measure is studied. Hedging portfolios use bonds with maturities in a countable, dense subset of a finite time interval. It is shown that under natural assumptions the market is not complete unles…

method Formalizing DeFi markets as CFMMs and proving the existence of increasing invariants.
result A DeFi market is arbitrage-free if and only if it has an increasing invariant.

We introduce Hermite fractional financial markets, where market uncertainties are described by multidimensional Hermite motions. Hermite markets include as particular cases financial markets driven by multivariate fractional Brownian motion and multivariate Rosenblatt motion. Conditions for no-arbitrage and market comp…

We present a thorough empirical analysis of market impact on the Bitcoin/USD exchange market using a complete dataset that allows us to reconstruct more than one million metaorders. We empirically confirm the "square-root law'' for market impact, which holds on four decades in spite of the quasi-absence of statistical …

Let SFS^F be a P\mathbb{P}-martingale representing the price of a primitive asset in an incomplete market framework. We present easily verifiable conditions on model coefficients which guarantee the completeness of the market in which in addition to the primitive asset one may also trade a derivative contract SBS^B. B…

Mathematical models for financial asset prices which include, for example, stochastic volatility or jumps are incomplete in that derivative securities are generally not replicable by trading in the underlying. In earlier work (2004) the first author provided a geometric condition under which trading in the underlying a…

Efficiently learns matching rewards in two-sided markets with matrix completion.

problem Learning high-dimensional matching rewards in matching markets with limited data.
method Utilizes matrix completion with a novel approach to handle matching interference.
result Near-optimal guarantees for reward learning under matching interference.

This paper examines the intra-day seasonality of transacted limit and market orders in the DEM/USD foreign exchange market. Empirical analysis of completed transactions data based on the Dealing 2000-2 electronic inter-dealer broking system indicates significant evidence of intraday seasonality in returns and return vo…

It is assumed that under suitable economic and information-theoretic conditions, market exchange rates are free from arbitrage. Commodity markets in which trades occur over a complete graph are shown to be trivial. We therefore examine the vector space of no-arbitrage exchange rate ensembles over an arbitrary connected…

The paper addresses statistical inference in matching markets with dependent missingness.

problem Statistical inference for two-sided matching markets with matching-induced dependence.
method Non-convex algorithm based on Grassmannian gradient descent, debiasing and projection framework.
result Near-optimal entrywise convergence rates for various matching mechanisms.

We study markets with no riskless (safe) asset. We derive the corresponding Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing equations for markets where there are only risky assets which have the following price dynamics: (i) continuous diffusions; (ii) jump-diffusions; (iii) diffusions with stochastic volatilities, and; (iv) geome…

The paper extends collective arbitrage concepts to multi-agent markets with cooperation.

Study the hedging of cryptocurrency options in a volatile market.

problem Hedging options in a volatile, non-stationary cryptocurrency market.
method Calibrated to SVI-implied volatility surfaces, Monte Carlo price paths generated using SVCJ, GARCH, and historical data. Delta, Delta-Gamma, Delta-Vega, and Minimum Variance strategies applied. Wide range of market models tested.
result Calibration results indicate stochastic volatility, low jump frequency, and infinite activity. Short-dated options less sensitive to volatility or Gamma hedges; longer-dated options benefit from multiple-instrument hedges.

We will compare three types of prices, namely, rational (hedging) prices, geometric (growth rate) prices, and martingale (measure) prices. We will show that rational prices in the complete market theory are sometimes contrary to common sense. In the continuous-time case, we insist that the market model should differ be…

We offer mathematical tractability and new insights for a framework of exponential utility with non-negative consumption, a constraint often omitted in the literature giving rise to economically unviable solutions.

This paper solves hedging in incomplete markets using neural networks.

problem Hedging in incomplete markets with risk factor, illiquidity, and discrete transaction dates.
method Proposes a jump-diffusion model and uses RNN, LSTM, and Mogrifier-LSTM neural networks for hedging strategies.
result Mogrifier-LSTM is the fastest and most effective model for hedging.

An arbitrage strategy allows a financial agent to make certain profit out of nothing, i.e., out of zero initial investment. This has to be disallowed on economic basis if the market is in equilibrium state, as opportunities for riskless profit would result in an instantaneous movement of prices of certain financial ins…

We study a portfolio selection problem in a continuous-time Itô-Markov additive market with prices of financial assets described by Markov additive processes which combine Lévy processes and regime switching models. Thus the model takes into account two sources of risk: the jump diffusion risk and the regime switching …

I prove that if markets are weak-form efficient, meaning current prices fully reflect all information available in past prices, then P = NP, meaning every computational problem whose solution can be verified in polynomial time can also be solved in polynomial time. I also prove the converse by showing how we can "progr…
