TL;DR: In this article, several definitions of the Riesz fractional Laplace operator in R^d have been studied, including singular integrals, semigroups of operators, Bochner's subordination, and harmonic extensions.
Abstract: This article reviews several definitions of the fractional Laplace operator (-Delta)^{alpha/2} (0 < alpha < 2) in R^d, also known as the Riesz fractional derivative operator, as an operator on Lebesgue spaces L^p, on the space C_0 of continuous functions vanishing at infinity and on the space C_{bu} of bounded uniformly continuous functions. Among these definitions are ones involving singular integrals, semigroups of operators, Bochner's subordination and harmonic extensions. We collect and extend known results in order to prove that all these definitions agree: on each of the function spaces considered, the corresponding operators have common domain and they coincide on that common domain.

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.
Abstract: Consider a model of a financial market with a stock driven by a Levy process and constant interest rate. A closed formula for prices of perpetual American call options in terms of the overall supremum of the Levy process, and a corresponding closed formula for perpetual American put options involving the infimum of the after-mentioned process are obtained. As a direct application of the previous results, a Black-Scholes type formula is given. Also as a consequence, simple explicit formulas for prices of call options are obtained for a Levy process with positive mixed-exponential and arbitrary negative jumps. In the case of put options, similar simple formulas are obtained under the condition of negative mixed-exponential and arbitrary positive jumps. Risk-neutral valuation is discussed and a simple jump-diffusion model is chosen to illustrate the results.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review work on extreme events, their causes and consequences, by a group of European and American researchers involved in a three-year project on these topics.
Abstract: We review work on extreme events, their causes and consequences, by a group of European and American researchers involved in a three-year project on these topics. The review covers theoretical aspects of time series analysis and of extreme value theory, as well as of the deterministic modeling of extreme events, via continuous and discrete dynamic models. The applications include climatic, seismic and socio-economic events, along with their prediction. Two important results refer to (i) the complementarity of spectral analysis of a time series in terms of the continuous and the discrete part of its power spectrum; and (ii) the need for coupled modeling of natural and socio-economic systems. Both these results have implications for the study and prediction of natural hazards and their human impacts.

TL;DR: In this paper, recurrence and transience criteria for two cases of time-homogeneous Markov chains on the real line with transition kernel p(x,dy)=fx(y−x) dy, where fx(y) are probability densities of symmetric distributions, have been given.
Abstract: We give recurrence and transience criteria for two cases of time-homogeneous Markov chains on the real line with transition kernel p(x,dy)=fx(y−x) dy, where fx(y) are probability densities of symmetric distributions and, for large |y|, have a power-law decay with exponent α(x)+1, with α(x)∈(0,2).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors prove the 4G inequality for the 1/2-stable and inverse Gaussian subordinators, discuss the corresponding class of admissible potentials and indicate estimates for the resulting transition densities of Schrodinger operators.
Abstract: Schrodinger perturbations of transition densities by singular potentials may fail to be comparable with the original transition density. For instance, this is so for the transition density of a subordinator perturbed by any time-independent unbounded potential. In order to estimate such perturbations, it is convenient to use an auxiliary transition density as a majorant and the 4G inequality for the original transition density and the majorant. We prove the 4G inequality for the 1/2-stable and inverse Gaussian subordinators, discuss the corresponding class of admissible potentials and indicate estimates for the resulting transition densities of Schrodinger operators. The connection of the transition densities to their generators is made via the weak-type notion of fundamental solution.

TL;DR: Based on a representation of a stochastic integral of Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (O–U) type, the exact simulation algorithm of the tempered stable O–U process is given in this paper.
Abstract: Based on a representation of a stochastic integral of Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (O–U) type, the exact simulation algorithm of the tempered stable O–U process is given in this paper. The algorithm employs the double rejection method and the general acceptance–rejection technique. The time complexity of the double rejection method is uniformly bounded over all values of the parameter. And the acceptance probability of the acceptance–rejection technique can be improved to as close to 1 as possible. Thus, the implementation of the algorithm is efficient. The performance of the simulation method is evidenced by some empirical results.
