On obtaining simple identities for overshoots of spectrally negative L\'evy processes
TL;DR: In this article, an analytic expression for the distribution of overshoot over a fixed level in terms of the infinitesimal generator and the scale function of the process is given. But the identity involves an auxiliary function and the simplicity of the identity depends very much on the choice of this function.

Hedging in L\'evy Models and the Time Step Equivalent of Jumps
TL;DR: In this paper, the first four moments of logarithmic stock returns in the L\'evy model and option price sensitivities (greeks) in the limiting Black-Scholes model are considered.

On the well-posedness of solutions with finite energy for nonlocal equations of porous medium type
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the equivalence and well-posedness of different notions of solutions with finite energy for nonlocal porous medium type equations of the form $$\partial_tu-A\varphi(u)=0.

Enhanced Poisson sum representation for alpha-stable processes
Tatjana Lemke,Simon J. Godsill +1 more
TL;DR: These representations aim to provide a conditionally Gaussian framework, which will allow parameter estimation using Rao-Blackwellised versions of state of the art Bayesian computational methods such as particle filters and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC).

A Multivariate Functional Limit Theorem in Weak $$M_{1}$$ Topology
Bojan Basrak,Danijel Krizmanić +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a functional limit theorem for weakly dependent regularly varying sequences of random vectors was proved for the case where the convergence takes place in the space of valued cadlag functions endowed with the so-called weak $$M_1}$$ topology.
