ON DE FINETTI'S OPTIMAL IMPULSE DIVIDEND CONTROL PROBLEM UNDER CHAPTER 11 BANKRUPTCY

Motivated by recent advances made in the study of dividend control and risk management problems involving the U.S.bankruptcy code,in this paper we follow[44]to revisit the De Finetti dividend control problem under the reorganization process and the regulator's intervention documented in U.S.Chapter 11 bankruptcy.We do this by further accommodating the fixed transaction costs on dividends to imitate the real-world procedure of dividend payments.Incorporating the fixed transaction costs transforms the targeting optimal dividend problem into an impulse control problem rather than a singular control problem,and hence computations and proofs that are distinct from[44]are needed.To account for the financial stress that is due to the more subtle concept of Chapter 11 bankruptcy,the surplus process after dividends is driven by a piece-wise spectrally negative Lévy process with endogenous regime switching.Some explicit expressions of the expected net present values under a double barrier dividend strategy,new to the literature,are established in terms of scale functions.With the help of these expressions,we are able to characterize the optimal strategy among the set of admissible double barrier dividend strategies.When the tail of the Lévy measure is log-convex,this optimal double barrier dividend strategy is then verified as the optimal dividend strategy,solving our optimal impulse control problem.

Maximal speed of particles in super-Lévy process

We introduce a super-Lévy process and study maximal speed of all particles in the range and the support of the super-Lévy process. The state of historical super-Lévy process is a measure on the set of paths. We study the maximal speed of all particles during a given time period, which turns out to be a function of the packing dimension of the time period. We calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the set of a-fast paths in the support and the range of the historical super-Lévy process.

Dynamics of a stochastic rumor propagation model incorporating media coverage and driven by Lévy noise

With the development of information technology,rumors propagate faster and more widely than in the past.In this paper,a stochastic rumor propagation model incorporating media coverage and driven by Lévy noise is proposed.The global positivity of the solution process is proved,and further the basic reproductive number R_(0) is obtained.When R_(0)<1,the dynamical process of system with Lévy jump tends to the rumor-free equilibrium point of the deterministic system,and the rumor tends to extinction;when R_(0)>1,the rumor will keep spreading and the system will oscillate randomly near the rumor equilibrium point of the deterministic system.The results show that the oscillation amplitude is related to the disturbance of the system.In addition,increasing media coverage can effectively reduce the final spread of rumors.Finally,the above results are verified by numerical simulation.

马尔可夫交换Lévy过程模型下的期权定价及其对冲（英文）

In this paper, we consider a Markov switching Lévy process model in which the underlying risky assets are driven by the stochastic exponential of Markov switching Lévy process and then apply the model to option pricing and hedging. In this model, the market interest rate, the volatility of the underlying risky assets and the N-state compensator,depend on unobservable states of the economy which are modeled by a continuous-time Hidden Markov process. We use the MEMM(minimal entropy martingale measure) as the equivalent martingale measure. The option price using this model is obtained by the Fourier transform method. We obtain a closed-form solution for the hedge ratio by applying the local risk minimizing hedging.

A universal robust limit theorem for nonlinear Lévy processes under sublinear expectation

This article establishes a universal robust limit theorem under a sublinear expectation framework.Under moment and consistency conditions,we show that,forα∈(1,2),the i.i.d.sequence{(1/√∑_(i=1)^(n)X_(i),1/n∑_(i=1)^(n)X_(i)Y_(i),1/α√n∑_(i=1)^(n)X_(i))}_(n=1)^(∞)converges in distribution to L_(1),where L_(t=(ε_(t),η_(t),ζ_(t))),t∈[0,1],is a multidimensional nonlinear Lévy process with an uncertainty■set as a set of Lévy triplets.This nonlinear Lévy process is characterized by a fully nonlinear and possibly degenerate partial integro-differential equation(PIDE){δ_(t)u(t,x,y,z)-sup_(F_(μ),q,Q)∈■{∫_(R^(d)δλu(t,x,y,z)(dλ)with.To construct the limit process,we develop a novel weak convergence approach based on the notions of tightness and weak compactness on a sublinear expectation space.We further prove a new type of Lévy-Khintchine representation formula to characterize.As a byproduct,we also provide a probabilistic approach to prove the existence of the above fully nonlinear degenerate PIDE.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of N-[(2S)-4-bromo-2-(L-menthyloxy)-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-3-furyl]-L-leucine

Starting from（5S）-（L-menthyloxy）-3,4-dibromo-5H-furan-2-one and L-leucine,the title compound N-[（2S）-4-bromo-2-（L-menthyloxy）-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-3-furyl]-L-leucine 5（C20H32BrNO5,Mr = 446.37） was obtained in one-pot process via the tandem Michael addition-elimination reaction in the presence of potassium hydroxide.The chemical structure and absolute configuration of the title compound were confirmed via rotation,UV-Vis,FT-IR,1H NMR,13C NMR,MS and elemental analysis,especially by the X-ray single-crystal diffraction.The crystal crystallizes in an orthorhombic system,space group P212121 with a = 12.5249（16）,b = 19.005（3）,c = 19.719（3） ,V = 4693.7（10） 3,Z = 8,Dc = 1.263 g/m3,μ = 1.778 mm-1,F（000） = 1872,the final R = 0.0617 and wR = 0.1576 for 3967 observed reflections（I 2σ（I））.X-ray analysis reveals that the title compound has two independent molecules in the asymmetric part of the unit cell with the two five-membered furanones being almost planar.The essential part of the electron delocalization is concentrated in the N（1）,C（3）,C（1）,C（37） and O（7） region and N（2）,C（28）,C（27）,C（30） and O（4） region in the other molecule respectively,but does not take place at the expense of delocalization within the ester function.

Exact joint laws associated with spectrally negative Levy processes and applications to insurance risk theory

We consider the spectrally negative L@vy processes and determine the joint laws for the quantities such as the first and last passage times over a fixed level, the overshoots and undershoots at first passage, the minimum, the maximum, and the duration of negative values. We apply our results to insurance risk theory to find an explicit expression for the generalized expected discounted penalty function in terms of scale functions. Furthermore, a new expression for the generalized Dickson＇s formula is provided.

This paper is concerned with a class of mean-field type stochastic optimal control systems,which are governed by fully coupled mean-field forward-backward stochastic differential equations with Teugels martingales associated to Lévy processes.In these systems,the coefficients contain not only the state processes but also their marginal distribution,and the cost function is of mean-field type as well.The necessary and sufficient conditions for such optimal problems are obtained.Furthermore,the applications to the linear quadratic stochastic optimization control problem are investigated.
