In this paper, we use probabilistic methods of excursion theory for Lévy processes in order to value some exotic options in general exponential Lévy models. AMS 2000 Subject Classification : Primary: 60G51, 91B28, 91B70. JEL Classification: C13.

In repeated games with di®erential information on one side, the labelling \general case" refers to games in which the action of the informed player is not known to the uninformed, who can only observe a signal which is the random outcome of his and his opponent's action. Here we consider the problem of minimizing regret (in the sense ̄rst formulated by Hannan [8]) when the information available...

We show that any connected regular graph with d + 1 distinct eigenvalues and odd-girth 2d + 1 is distance-regular, and in particular that it is a generalized odd graph. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 05E30, 05C50; JEL Classification System: C0

abstract regarding the imprecise or fuzzy data on the agriculture activities, applying models based on fuzzy data may be useful. in line with this condition this study tries to compare the ability of possiblistic programming approach in developing optimal solution with fuzzy and deterministic programming. to get this objective a data set obtained from 90 farmers of kohgilooye region, gathered i...
