Optimal Stopping Game with Investment Spillover Effect for Energy Infrastructure
The purpose of this study is to analyze the consequence of the existence of positive externality in the optimal choice of a firm’s time of investment in a gaming environment. I consider a situation where firms can increase their subsequent revenue stream by investing at a period of time. The investment opportunity is assumed to be one-time opportunity and once it is made, it cannot be redone, i...
متن کاملA discretionary stopping problem with applications to the optimal timing of investment decisions ∗
We consider the discretionary stopping problem that aims at maximising the performance criterion Ex [ e R τ 0 sg(Xτ )1{τ<∞} ] over all stopping times τ , where X is a general one-dimensional positive Itô diffusion, r is a strictly positive function and g is a given payoff function. This optimal stopping problem has several applications in mathematical finance and economics. These include the pr...
متن کاملAn Optimal Stopping Approach to the Conservation of Biodiversity
In the past two decades, a considerable amount of concern has been expressed in academic and in nonacademic circles about the decline in the world's diverse biological resources. Recently, Swanson (l995b) has suggested that the problem of biodiversity loss is really a problem of regulating the natural habitat conversion process in which naturally existing species have systematically been replac...
متن کاملA Hands-on Approach to Optimal Stopping
These notes give a more detailed account of the material discussed in lectures. They are largely based on material found in books and research papers. In the former category, we have relied heavily on the following two texts:
متن کاملOptimal Stopping with Multiple Priors
We develop a theory of optimal stopping under Knightian uncertainty. A suitable martingale theory for multiple priors is derived in order to extend the classical dynamic programming or Snell envelope approach to multiple priors. We relate the multiple prior theory to the classical setup via a minimax theorem. In a multiple prior version of the classical i.i.d. model we discuss several examples ...
