The price of electricity is far more volatile than that of other commodities normally noted for extreme volatility. The possibility of extreme price movements increases the risk of trading in electricity markets. However, underlying the process of price returns is a strong mean-reverting mechanism. We study this featur…

Quantum theory reinterprets financial pricing by focusing on observable price transitions.

problem Traditional financial models rely on latent variables; this paper proposes a new observable approach.
method Shift operators, spectral calculus, and Lindblad semigroups are used to define observable frequency operators and convolution generators.
result The framework leads to a nonlocal pricing equation that converges to classical Black-Scholes-Merton under small mesh limits.
