"Weighted spaces and numerical schemes for
stochastic (partial) differential equations"
(seminar of the Doctorate School PDEtech)
Abstract: We consider spaces of functions on separable Hilbert spaces
or, more generally, on dual spaces of separable Banach spaces, endowed
with a weighted supremum norm. A corresponding notion of
differentiability is given. We prove rates of convergence of weak
approximation schemes for stochastic (partial) differential equations
in these spaces.

"Volatility derivatives"
Abstract:
In this talk we will give an overview on valuation and hedging of
volatility derivatives, such as variance and volatility swaps which
are of great practical importance. We will show how to price and hedge
variance swaps in terms of strips of European call and put options,
only assuming that the stock price process is continuous. To price
volatility swaps, we also have to assume that the stock price process
and the volatility process are independent. We obtain all our results
without specifying the dynamics of our volatility process.

"A Semigroup Point Of View On Splitting Schemes
For Stochastic (Partial) Differential Equations"
Abstract:
We consider weak approximations of S(P)DEs. To extend the
numerical analysis of splitting schemes to realistic assumptions on
characteristics and test functions, we introduce Banach spaces of
functions with controlled growth, generalising the Feller property to
non-locally compact state spaces. We prove optimal rates of convergence
for the Ninomiya-Victoir splitting applied to general Da Prato-Zabczyk
type equations and the HJM equations from interest rate theory.

"Stochastic dependence, extremal risk
and optimal portfolio diversification"
This talk is concerned with the description of possible influence of
positive dependence on the magnitude of risk in a portfolio vector. We
discuss and review developments on the classical problem of Fréchet type
bounds with univariate and multivariate marginals, and their
applications to related various dependence orderings. As application we
identify the worst case dependence structure of a portfolio of
d-dimensional risks. In the second part we consider some new
developments on the portfolio diversification problem. In the framework
of multivariate extreme value theory we determine risk optimal
portfolios and consider statistical properties of their empirical versions.

"Exponential Utility Maximization and the Minimal Entropy
Martingale Measure in Affine Stochastic Volatility Models"
Abstract:
We show that the minimal entropy martingale measure (MEMM) exists if the
dynamics of multivariate assets belongs to a class of affine stochastic
volatility models characterized by their affine structure and an
additional structure condition. In this framework we solve the
corresponding exponential utility maximization problem. As an
application this leads to explicit formulas in some stochastic
volatility models allowing for multivariate volatilities. Since the
knowledge of the MEMM is a key ingredient for asymptotic exponential
utility-based pricing and hedging, we use our results in order to
compute first-order approximations of utility-indifference prices and
utility-based hedging strategies in affine stochastic volatility models.
We illustrate our results with a numerical example in the superposition
model of Barndorff-Nielsen & Shephard.

"Derivative Pricing and Long Memory in the Multivariate Ornstein-
Uhlenbeck type Stochastic Volatility Model"
Abstract:
In this talk we consider a multivariate stochastic volatility model for
financial assets based on positive semi-definite Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type
processes. First we discuss the pricing of financial derivatives in this
model focusing especially on pricing via Laplace transforms and we show
that calibration to observed prices becomes very feasible when choosing
appropriate parametric assumptions. We illustrate this with a data
example from foreign exchange markets.
In the second part of the talk we consider an extension of the model
allowing to capture long range dependence in the squared returns. To
this end we introduce supOU processes defined in terms of a Levy basis
(or infinitely divisible independently scattered random measure). After
analysing some of their properties, we look at the implications of using
them as the instantaneous covariance matrix processes in a stochastic
volatility model.
