Applications of the error theory using Dirichlet forms

Scotti, Simone 16 October 2008 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis is devoted to the study of the applications of the error theory using Dirichlet forms. Our work is split into three parts. The first one deals with the models described by stochastic differential equations. After a short technical chapter, an innovative model for order books is proposed. We assume that the bid-ask spread is not an imperfection, but an intrinsic property of exchange markets instead. The uncertainty is carried by the Brownian motion guiding the asset. We find that spread evolutions can be evaluated using closed formulae and we estimate the impact of the underlying uncertainty on the related contingent claims. Afterwards, we deal with the PBS model, a new model to price European options. The seminal idea is to distinguish the market volatility with respect to the parameter used by traders for hedging. We assume the former constant, while the latter volatility being an erroneous subjective estimation of the former. We prove that this model anticipates a bid-ask spread and a smiled implied volatility curve. Major properties of this model are the existence of closed formulae for prices, the impact of the underlying drift and an efficient calibration strategy. The second part deals with the models described by partial differential equations. Linear and non-linear PDEs are examined separately. In the first case, we show some interesting relations between the error and wavelets theories. When non-linear PDEs are concerned, we study the sensitivity of the solution using error theory. Except when exact solution exists, two possible approaches are detailed: first, we analyze the sensitivity obtained by taking "derivatives" of the discrete governing equations. Then, we study the PDEs solved by the sensitivity of the theoretical solutions. In both cases, we show that sharp and bias solve linear PDE depending on the solution of the former PDE itself and we suggest algorithms to evaluate numerically the sensitivities. Finally, the third part is devoted to stochastic partial differential equations. Our analysis is split into two chapters. First, we study the transmission of an uncertainty, present on starting conditions, on the solution of SPDE. Then, we analyze the impact of a perturbation of the functional terms of SPDE and the coefficient of the related Green function. In both cases, we show that the sharp and bias verify linear SPDE depending on the solution of the former SPDE itself

Pathwise anticipating random periodic solutions of SDEs and SPDEs with linear multiplicative noise

Wu, Yue January 2014 (has links)
In this thesis, we study the existence of pathwise random periodic solutions to both the semilinear stochastic differential equations with linear multiplicative noise and the semilinear stochastic partial differential equations with linear multiplicative noise in a Hilbert space. We identify them as the solutions of coupled forward-backward infinite horizon stochastic integral equations in general cases, and then perform the argument of the relative compactness of Wiener-Sobolev spaces in C([0, T],L2Ω,Rd)) or C([0, T],L2(Ω x O)) and Schauder's fixed point theorem to show the existence of a solution of the coupled stochastic forward-backward infinite horizon integral equations.

Applications of the error theory using Dirichlet forms / Application de la théorie d'erreur par formes de Dirichlet

Scotti, Simone 16 October 2008 (has links)
Cette thèse est consacrée à l'étude des applications de la théorie des erreurs par formes de Dirichlet. Notre travail se divise en trois parties. La première analyse les modèles gouvernés par une équation différentielle stochastique. Après un court chapitre technique, un modèle innovant pour les carnets d’ordres est proposé. Nous considérons que le spread bid-ask n'est pas un défaut, mais plutôt une propriété intrinsèque du marché. L'incertitude est portée par le mouvement Brownien qui conduit l'actif. Nous montrons que l'évolution des spread peut être évaluée grâce à des formules fermées et nous étudions l'impact de l'incertitude du sous-jacent sur les produits dérivés. En suite, nous introduisons le modèle PBS pour le pricing des options européennes. L'idée novatrice est de distinguer la volatilité du marché par rapport au paramètre utilisé par les traders pour se couvrir. Nous assumons la première constante, alors que le deuxième devient une estimation subjective et erronée de la première. Nous prouvons que ce modèle prévoit un spread bid-ask et un smile de volatilité. Les propriétés plus intéressantes de ce modèle sont l’existence de formules fermés pour le pricing, l'impact de la dérive du sous-jacent et une efficace stratégie de calibration. La seconde partie s'intéresse aux modèles décrit par une équation aux dérivées partielles. Les cas linéaire et non-linéaire sont analysés séparément. Dans le premier nous montrons des relations intéressantes entre la théorie des erreurs et celui des ondelettes. Dans le cas non-linéaire nous étudions la sensibilité des solutions à l’aide de la théorie des erreurs. Sauf dans le cas d’une solution exacte, il y a deux approches possibles : on peut d’abord discrétiser l’EDP et étudier la sensibilité du problème discrétisé, soit démontrer que les sensibilités théoriques vérifient des EDP. Les deux cas sont étudiés, et nous prouvons que les sharp et le biais sont solutions d’EDP linéaires dépendantes de la solution de l’EDP originaire et nous proposons des algorithmes pour évaluer numériquement les sensibilités. Enfin, la troisième partie est dédiée aux équations stochastiques aux dérivées partielles. Notre analyse se divise en deux chapitres. D’abord nous étudions la transmission de l’incertitude, présente dans la condition initiale, à la solution de l’EDPS. En suite, nous analysons l'impact d'une perturbation dans les termes fonctionnelles de l’EDPS et dans le coefficient de la fonction de Green associée. Dans le deux cas, nous prouvons que le sharp et le biais sont solutions de deux EDPS linéaires dépendantes de la solution de l’EDPS originaire / This thesis is devoted to the study of the applications of the error theory using Dirichlet forms.

Nella prima vengono studiati i modelli descritti da un’equazione differenziale stocastica: dopo un breve capitolo con risultati tecnici viene descritto un modello innovativo per i libri d’ordini. La presenza dei differenziali denarolettera viene considerata non come un’imperfezione, bensi una proprietà intrinseca dei mercati. L’incertezza viene descritta come un rumore sul moto Browniano sottostante all’azione; dimostriamo che l’evoluzione di questi differenziali puó essere valutata attraverso formule chiuse e stimiamo l’impatto dell’incertezza del sottostante sui prodotti derivati. In seguito proponiamo un nuovo modello, chiamato PBS, per il prezzaggio delle opzioni di tipo europeo: l’idea innovativa consiste nel distinguere la volatilità di mercato dal parametro usato dai trader per la copertura. Noi supponiamo la prima constante, mentre il secondo diventa una stima soggettiva ed erronea della prima. Dimostriamo che questo modello prevede dei differenziali lettera-denaro e uno smile di volatilità implicita. Le maggiori proprietà di questo modello sono l’esistenza di formule chiuse per il princing, l’impatto del drift del sottostante e un’efficace strategia per la calibrazione. La seconda parte è dedicata allo studio dei modelli descritti da delle equazioni alle derivate perziali. I casi lineare e non-lineare sono trattati separatamente. Nel primo caso mostriamo interessanti relazioni tra la teoria degli errori e quella delle wavelets. Nel caso delle EDP non-lineari studiamo la sensibilità della soluzione usando la teoria degli errori. Due possibili approcci esistono, salvo quando la soluzione è esplicita. Possiamo prima discretizzare il problema e studiare la sensibilità delle equazioni discretizzate, oppure possiamo dimostrare che le sensibilità teoriche verificano, a loro volta, delle EDP dipendenti dalla soluzione della EDP iniziale. Entrambi gli approcci sono descritti e vengono proposti degli algoritmi per valutare le sensibilità numericamente. Infine, la terza parte è dedicata ai modelli descritti da un’equazione stocastica alle derivate parziali. La nostra analisi é divisa in due capitoli. Nel primo viene studiato l’impatto di un’incertezza, presente nella condizione iniziale, sulla soluzione dell’EDPS, nella seconda si analizzano gli impatti di una perturbazione dei termini funzionali dell’EDPS del coefficiente della funzione di Green associata. In entrambi i casi dimostriamo che lo sharp e la discrepanza sono soluzioni di due EDPS lineari dipendenti dalla soluzione dell’EDPS iniziale

Influence du stochastique sur des problématiques de changements d'échelle / Stochastic influence on problematics around changes of scale

Ayi, Nathalie 19 September 2016 (has links)
Les travaux de cette thèse s'inscrivent dans le domaine des équations aux dérivées partielles et sont liés à la problématique des changements d'échelle dans le contexte de la cinétique des gaz. En effet, sachant qu'il existe plusieurs niveaux de description pour un gaz, on cherche à relier les différentes échelles associées dans un cadre où une part d'aléa intervient. Dans une première partie, on établit la dérivation rigoureuse de l'équation de Boltzmann linéaire sans cut-off en partant d'un système de particules interagissant via un potentiel à portée infinie en partant d'un équilibre perturbé.La deuxième partie traite du passage d'un modèle BGK stochastique avec champ fort à une loi de conservation scalaire avec forçage stochastique. D'abord, on établit l'existence d'une solution au modèle BGK considéré. Sous une hypothèse additionnelle, on prouve alors la convergence vers une formulation cinétique associée à la loi de conservation avec forçage stochastique.Au cours de la troisième partie, on quantifie dans le cas à vitesses discrètes le défaut de régularité dans les lemmes de moyenne et on établit un lemme de moyenne stochastique dans ce même cas. On applique alors le résultat au cadre de l'approximation de Rosseland pour établir la limite diffusive associée à ce modèle.Enfin, on s'intéresse à l'étude numérique du modèle de Uchiyama de particules carrées à quatre vitesses en dimension deux. Après avoir adapté les méthodes de simulation développées dans le cas des sphères dures, on effectue une étude statistique des limites à différentes échelles de ce modèle. On rejette alors l'hypothèse d'un mouvement Brownien fractionnaire comme limite diffusive / The work of this thesis belongs to the field of partial differential equations and is linked to the problematic of scale changes in the context of kinetic of gas. Indeed, knowing that there exists different scales of description for a gas, we want to link these different associated scales in a context where some randomness acts, in initial data and/or distributed on all the time interval. In a first part, we establish the rigorous derivation of the linear Boltzmann equation without cut-off starting from a particle system interacting via a potential of infinite range starting from a perturbed equilibrium. The second part deals with the passage from a stochastic BGK model with high-field scaling to a scalar conservation law with stochastic forcing. First, we establish the existence of a solution to the considered BGK model. Under an additional assumption, we prove then the convergence to a kinetic formulation associated to the conservation law with stochastic forcing. In the third part, first we quantify in the case of discrete velocities the defect of regularity in the averaging lemmas. Then, we establish a stochastic averaging lemma in that same case. We apply then the result to the context of Rosseland approximation to establish the diffusive limit associated to this model.Finally, we are interested into the numerical study of Uchiyama's model of square particles with four velocities in dimension two. After adapting the methods of simulation which were developed in the case of hard spheres, we carry out a statistical study of the limits at different scales of this model. We reject the hypothesis of a fractional Brownian motion as diffusive limit
