Semigroup Theory Applied to Options
نویسندگان
چکیده
Black and Scholes (1973) proved that under certain assumptions about the market place, the value of a European option, as a function of the current value of the underlying asset and time, verifies a Cauchy problem. We give new conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the value of a European option by using semigroup theory. For this, we choose a suitable space that verifies some conditions, what allows us that the operator that appears in the Cauchy problem is the infinitesimal generator of a C0-semigroup T(t). Then we are able to guarantee the existence and uniqueness of the value of a European option and we also achieve an explicit expression of that value.

SEMIGROUP ACTIONS , WEAK ALMOST PERIODICITY, AND INVARIANT MEANS
Let S be a topological semigroup acting on a topological space X. We develop the theory of (weakly) almost periodic functions on X, with respect to S, and form the (weakly) almost periodic compactifications of X and S, with respect to each other. We then consider the notion of an action of Son a Banach space, and on its dual, and after defining S-invariant means for such a space, we give a...
متن کاملSustainable Planning of Supply Chains in Large-Scale Systems with Real Options Analysis
This paper presents a structure that empower designing supervisory groups to survey the estimation of real options in projects of enormous scale, incompletely standardized frameworks actualized a couple of times over the medium term. Specific options writing is done using a methodology of planning the design and making prior decisions regarding the arrangements of specific options, with a recre...
متن کاملNonlinear Semigroup Methods in Problems with Hysteresis
Results from a nonlinear semigroup theory are applied to get existence and uniqueness for PDEs with hysteresis. The hysteresis nonlinearity considered is of the generalized play operator type, but can be easily extended to a generalized Prandtl-Ishlinskii operator of play type, both possibly discontinuous.

In this paper a variational version of the Trotter-Kato theorem is applied to an innnitesimal generator A of a C 0-semigroup in a Hilbert space that is assumed to be the sum of two linear operators A and B deened on the intersection of their domains, where A ? !I is m-dissipative for some ! > 0 and B is the generator of an analytic semigroup associated with a bounded V-coercive sesquilinear for...
متن کاملOn fixed points of the lower set operator
Lower subsets of an ordered semigroup form in a natural way an ordered semigroup. This lower set operator gives an analogue of the power operator already studied in semigroup theory. We present a complete description of the lower set operator applied to varieties of ordered semigroups. We also obtain large families of fixed points for this operator applied to pseudovarieties of ordered semigrou...
