Construction of continuous-state branching processes in varying environments

TL;DR: In this article, a continuous-state branching process in varying environments is constructed by the pathwise unique solution to a stochastic integral equation driven by time-space noises, and the behavior of the continuous state process at its bottlenecks is clarified.

On the class of distributions of subordinated Lévy processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the class of distributions obtained by subordinating Levy processes and Levy bases and derived properties of a suitable mapping obtained via Levy mixing, which can be used to solve the recovery problem for general Levy bases as well as for moving average processes which are driven by subordinated Levy processes.

Lévy processes with finite variance conditioned to avoid an interval

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the question if a Levy process can be conditioned to avoid an interval and, if so, the path behavior of the conditioned process, and they showed that conditioning is possible for Levy processes with finite second moments.

Pricing and Hedging in Affine Models with Possibility of Default

TL;DR: A Heston-type Stochastic volatility model with possibility of default and stochastic interest rates is discussed, and an efficient method to compute prices of power payoffs is shown by solving a coupled system of generalized Riccati equations.

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.
