One of the main tasks to analyze and design a mining system is predicting the behavior exhibited by prices in the future. In this paper, the applications of different prediction methods are evaluated in econometrics and financial management fields, such as ARIMA, TGARCH, and stochastic differential equations, for the time-series of monthly copper prices. Moreover, the performance of these metho...

It is shown that under a certain condition on a semimartingale and a time-change, any stochastic integral driven by the time-changed semimartingale is a time-changed stochastic integral driven by the original semimartingale. As a direct consequence, a specialized form of the Itô formula is derived. When a standard Brownian motion is the original semimartingale, classical Itô stochastic differen...

in this paper, we present an efficient method for determining the solution of the stochastic second kind volterra integral equations (svie) by using the taylor expansion method. this method transforms the svie to a linear stochastic ordinary differential equation which needs specified boundary conditions. for determining boundary conditions, we use the integration technique. this technique give...

In this paper, we study forward-backward doubly stochastic differential equations driven by Brownian motions and Poisson process (FBDSDEP in short). Both the probabilistic interpretation for the solutions to a class of quasilinear stochastic partial differential-integral equations (SPDIEs in short) and stochastic Hamiltonian systems arising in stochastic optimal control problems with random jum...

Stochastic or random integral equations are extremely important in the study of many physical phenomena in life sciences and engineering [3, 14, 16]. There are currently two basic versions of stochastic integral equations being studied by probabilists and mathematical statisticians, namely, those integral equations involving Ito-Doob type of stochastic integrals and those which can be formed as...

In this paper, we consider the problem of mean-variance hedging in an incomplete market where the underlying assets are jump diffusion processes which are driven by Brownian motion and doubly stochastic Poisson processes. This problem is formulated as a stochastic control problem and closed form expressions for the optimal hedging policy are obtained using methods from stochastic control and th...

It is well known that Itô’s formula is an essential tool in stochastic analysis. But it cannot be used for general stochastic Volterra integral equations SVIEs . In this paper, we first introduce the concept of quasi-Itô process which is a generalization of well-known Itô process. And then we extend Itô’s formula to a more general form applicable to some kinds of SVIEs. Furthermore, the stabili...

A numerical approach for the approximation of inertial manifolds of stochastic evolutionary equations with multiplicative noise is presented and illustrated. After splitting the stochastic evolutionary equations into a backward and a forward part, a numerical scheme is devised for solving this backward-forward stochastic system, and an ensemble of graphs representing the inertial manifold is co...
