Pricing approximations and error estimates for local L\'evy-type models with default

TL;DR: In this paper, approximate solutions of partial integro-differential equations, which arise in financial models when defaultable assets are described by general scalar Levy-type stochastic processes, are derived.

Boundary regularity for nonlocal operators with kernels of variable orders.

TL;DR: In this article, the boundary regularity of Dirichlet solutions with a kernel of variable orders was studied in the generalized H\"older space, where the order of differentiability of the kernel is not represented by a single number.

Asymptotic Distributions of the Overshoot and Undershoots for the L\'evy Insurance Risk Process in the Cram\'er and Convolution Equivalent Cases

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the asymptotics of the distributions of the overshoot and undershoots of a high level, for a Levy process which drifts to $-\infty$ and satisfies a Cramer or a convolution equivalent condition.

Robust consumption-investment problem under CRRA and CARA utilities with time-varying confidence sets

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust consumption-investment problem under constant relative risk aversion and constant absolute risk aversion utilities is considered, and the time-varying confidence sets are specified by Θ, a correspondence from [0, T] to the space of the Levy triplets, and describe a priori drift, volatility, and jump information.

Stable processes conditioned to avoid an interval

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that conditioning stable Markov processes to avoid an interval is possible in the classical sense and that the resulting process is a Doob h -transform of the stable process killed on entering the aforesaid interval.

Optimal stopping and perpetual options for Lévy processes

TL;DR: A closed formula for prices of perpetual American call options in terms of the overall supremum of the Lévy process, and a corresponding closed formulas for perpetual American put options involving the infimum of the after-mentioned process are obtained.
