A no arbitrage approach to Thiele’s differential equation
نویسنده
چکیده
The multi-state life insurance contract is reconsidered in a framework of securitization where insurance claims may be priced by the principle of no arbitrage. This way a generalized version of Thiele’s differential equation (TDE) is obtained for insurance contracts linked to indices, possibly marketed securities. The equation is exemplified by a traditional policy, a simple unit-linked policy and a path-dependent unit-linked policy. © 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. MSC: IM40; IE50; IB10

A no-arbitrage theorem for uncertain stock model
Stock model is used to describe the evolution of stock price in the form of differential equations. In early years, the stock price was assumed to follow a stochastic differential equation driven by a Brownian motion, and some famous models such as Black-Scholes stock model and Black-Karasinski stock model were widely used. This paper assumes that the stock price follows an uncertain differenti...
متن کاملValuing Hedge Fund Fees
This thesis applies a Partial Integral Differential Equation model, along with a Monte Carlo approach to quantitatively analyze the no arbitrage value of hedge fund performance fees. From a no-arbitrage point of view, the investor in a hedge fund is providing a free option to the manager of the hedge fund. The no-arbitrage value of this option can be locked in by the hedge fund manager using a ...
متن کاملValuation of installment option by penalty method
In this paper, installment options on the underlying asset which evolves according to Black-Scholes model and pays constant dividend to its owner will be considered. Applying arbitrage pricing theory, the non-homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation governing the value of installment option is derived. Then, penalty method is used to value the European continuous installment call opt...
متن کاملDerivative pricing with virtual arbitrage
In this paper we derive an effective equation for derivative pricing which accounts for the presence of virtual arbitrage opportunities and their elimination by the market. We model the arbitrage return by a stochastic process and find an equation for the average derivative price. This is an integro-differential equation which, in the absence of the virtual arbitrage or for an infinitely fast m...
متن کاملPAIRED ANISOTROPIC DISTRIBUTION FOR IMAGE SELECTIVE SMOOTHING
In this paper, we present a novel approach for image selective smoothing by the evolution of two paired nonlinear partial differential equations. The distribution coefficient in de-noising equation controls the speed of distribution, and is determined by the edge-strength function. In the previous works, the edge-strength function depends on isotropic smoothing of the image...
