comportamento mais rico. Os resultados analíticos são obtidos utilizando a pro-

os dados empíricos do mercado de ações, que são notórios pelo comportamento não-estacionário e não-Gaussiano. As análises são focadas na forma do decaimento exponencial e na convergência assintótica dos quatro primeiros cumulantes considerando os retornos logarítmicos dos preços diários de ações. Mostramos que o modelo proposto oferece uma boa melhora em relação ao modelo OU clássico. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / We generalize the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process using the Doob's theorem.
We relax the Gaussian and stationary conditions, assuming a linear and time-
homogeneous process. The proposed generalization retains much of the simplicity
of the original stochastic process, while exhibiting a somewhat richer behavior.
Analytical results are obtained using transition probability and the characteristic
function formalism and compared with empirical stock market daily data, which
are notorious for the non-stationary and non-Gaussian behavior. The analysis
focus on the decay patterns and the convergence study of the rst four cumulants
considering the logarithmic returns of stock prices. It is shown that the proposed
model o ers a good improvement over the classical OU model.

Understanding the Functional Central Limit Theorems with Some Applications to Unit Root Testing with Structural Change / El Teorema del Límite Central Funcional con algunas aplicaciones a raíces unitarias con cambios estructuralesAquino, Juan Carlos, Rodríguez, Gabriel 10 April 2018 (has links)
The application of different unit root statistics is by now a standard practice in empirical work. Even when it is a practical issue, these statistics have complex nonstandard distributions depending on functionals of certain stochastic processes, and their derivations represent a barrier even for many theoretical econometricians. These derivations are based on rigorous and fundamental statistical tools which are not (very) well known by standard econometricians. This paper aims to fill this gap by explaining in a simple way one of these fundamental tools: namely, the Functional Central Limit Theorem. To this end, this paper analyzes the foundations and applicability of two versions of the Functional Central Limit Theorem within the framework of a unit root with a structural break. Initial attention is focused on the probabilistic structure of the time series to be considered. Thereafter, attention is focused on the asymptotic theory for nonstationary time series proposed by Phillips (1987a), which is applied by Perron (1989) to study the effects of an (assumed) exogenous structural break on the power of the augmented Dickey-Fuller test and by Zivot and Andrews (1992) to criticize the exogeneity assumption and propose a method for estimating an endogenous breakpoint. A systematic method for dealing with efficiency issues is introduced by Perron and Rodriguez (2003), which extends the Generalized Least Squares detrending approach due to Elliot et al. (1996). An empirical application is provided. / Hoy en día es una práctica estándar de trabajo empírico la aplicación de diferentes estadísticos de contraste de raíz unitaria. A pesar de ser un aspecto práctico, estos estadísticos poseen distribuciones complejas y no estándar que dependen de funcionales de ciertos procesos estocásticos y sus derivaciones representan una barrera incluso para varios econometristas teóricos. Estas derivaciones están basadas en herramientas estadísticas fundamentales y rigurosas que no son (muy) bien conocidas por econometristas estándar. El presente artículo completa esta brecha al explicar en una forma simple una de estas herramientas fundamentales la cual es el Teorema del Límite Central Funcional. Por lo tanto, este documento analiza los fundamentos y la aplicabilidad de dos versiones del Teorema del Límite Central Funcional dentro del marco de una raíz unitaria con un quiebre estructural. La atención inicial se centra en la estructura probabilística de las series de tiempo propuesta por Phillips (1987a), la cual es aplicada por Perron (1989) para estudiar los efectos de un quiebre estructural (asumido) exógeno sobre la potencia de las pruebas Dickey-Fuller aumentadas y por Zivot y Andrews (1992) para criticar el supuesto de exogeneidad y proponer un método para estimar un punto de quiebre endógeno. Un método sistemático para tratar con aspectos de eficiencia es introducido por Perron y Rodríguez (2003), el cual extiende el enfoque de Mínimos Cuadrados Generalizados para eliminar los componentes determinísticos de Elliot et al. (1996). Se presenta además una aplicación empírica.

Optimal Stopping and Switching Problems with Financial ApplicationsWang, Zheng January 2016 (has links)
This dissertation studies a collection of problems on trading assets and derivatives over finite and infinite horizons. In the first part, we analyze an optimal switching problem with transaction costs that involves an infinite sequence of trades. The investor's value functions and optimal timing strategies are derived when prices are driven by an exponential Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (XOU) or Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) process. We compare the findings to the results from the associated optimal double stopping problems and identify the conditions under which the double stopping and switching problems admit the same optimal entry and/or exit timing strategies. Our results show that when prices are driven by a CIR process, optimal strategies for the switching problems are of the classic buy-low-sell-high type. On the other hand, under XOU price dynamics, the investor should refrain from entering the market if the current price is very close to zero. As a result, the continuation (waiting) region for entry is disconnected. In both models, we provide numerical examples to illustrate the dependence of timing strategies on model parameters. In the second part, we study the problem of trading futures with transaction costs when the underlying spot price is mean-reverting. Specifically, we model the spot dynamics by the OU, CIR or XOU model. The futures term structure is derived and its connection to futures price dynamics is examined. For each futures contract, we describe the evolution of the roll yield, and compute explicitly the expected roll yield. For the futures trading problem, we incorporate the investor's timing options to enter and exit the market, as well as a chooser option to long or short a futures upon entry. This leads us to formulate and solve the corresponding optimal double stopping problems to determine the optimal trading strategies. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the optimal entry and exit boundaries under different models. We find that the option to choose between a long or short position induces the investor to delay market entry, as compared to the case where the investor pre-commits to go either long or short. Finally, we analyze the optimal risk-averse timing to sell a risky asset. The investor's risk preference is described by the exponential, power or log utility. Two stochastic models are considered for the asset price -- the geometric Brownian motion (GBM) and XOU models to account for, respectively, the trending and mean-reverting price dynamics. In all cases, we derive the optimal thresholds and certainty equivalents to sell the asset, and compare them across models and utilities, with emphasis on their dependence on asset price, risk aversion, and quantity. We find that the timing option may render the investor's value function and certainty equivalent non-concave in price even though the utility function is concave in wealth. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the investor's optimal strategies and the premia associated with optimally timing to sell with different utilities under different price dynamics.

Previous issue date: 2014-02-17 / Pair trading is an old and well-known technique among traders. In this paper, we discuss an important element not commonly debated in Brazil: the cointegration between pairs, which would guarantee the spread stability. We run the Dickey-Fuller test to check cointegration, and then compare the results with non-cointegrated pairs. We found that the Sharpe ratio of cointegrated pairs is greater than the non-cointegrated. We also use the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck equation in order to calculate the half-life of the pairs. Again, this improves their performance. Last, we use the leverage suggested by Kelly Formula, once again improving the results.

Estimations paramétriques et non-paramétriques pour des modèles de diffusions périodiques / Parametric and not - parametric estimations for models of periodic distributionsEl Waled, Khalil 25 November 2015 (has links)
Cette thèse est consacrée au problème d'estimation de la fonction de dérive de certains modèles de processus stochastiques périodiques lorsque la durée d'observation tend vers l'infini. Aucune hypothèse de récurrence n'est posée a priori.Dans un premier temps nous considérons le modèle du type signal plus bruit dζt = f (t, θ)dt + σ(t)dWt,; et puis nous étudions l'estimation du paramètre θ à partir d'une observation continue et puis d'une observation discrète du processus {ζt} sur l'intervalle [0; T]. Les fonctions f (·, ·) et σ(·) sont continues et périodiques en t de même période P > 0, σ(·) > 0 et θ ∈ Θ ⊂R. Nous établissons la convergence en probabilité d'un estimateur du maximum de vraisemblance θˆT , sa normalité asymptotique et son efficacité asymptotique minimax. Lorsque f (t, θ) = θf (t), l'expression de θˆT est explicite et nous obtenons la convergence en moyenne quadratique aussi bien pour le cas d'une observation continue que pour le cas d'une observation discrète. De plus, nous déduisons la convergence presque sûre dans le cas d'une observation continue.Dans la seconde partie nous traitons l'estimation non-paramétrique de la fonction f(_) pour les modèles périodiques du type signal plus bruit et du type Ornstein-Uhlenbeck donnés par dζt = f (t)dt + σ(t)dWt, dξt = f (t)ξtdt + dWt. Pour le premier modèle, un estimateur à noyau périodique est construit, la convergence en moyenne quadratique uniformément sur [0; P] et presque sûre de cet estimateur est établie ainsi que sa normalité asymptotique. Dans le cas du modèle d'Ornstein-Uhlenbeck, la convergence du biais ainsi que la convergence en moyenne quadratique uniformément sur [0; P] sont prouvées, et leurs vitesses de convergence sont étudiées. / In this thesis, we consider a drift estimation problem of a certain class of stochastic periodic processes when the length of observation goes to infinity. Firstly, we deal with the linear periodic signal plus noise model dζt = f (t, θ)dt + σ(t)dWt, ;and we study the parametric estimation from a continuous and discrete observation of the process f_tg throughout the interval [0; T]. Using the maximum likelihood method we show the existence of an estimator θˆT which is consistent, asymptotically normal and asymptotically efficient in the sens minimax. When f(t; _) = _f(t), the expression of ^_T is explicit and we obtain the mean square convergence in the both continuous and discrete observation cases. In addition, we deduce the strong consistency in the case of continuous observation.Secondly, we consider the nonparametric estimation problem of the function f(_) for the next two periodic models of type signal plus noise and Ornstein-Uhlenbeckd_t = f(t)dt + _(t)dWt; d_t = f(t)_tdt + dWt:For the signal plus noise model, we build a kernel estimator, the convergence in mean square uniformly over [0; P] and almost sure convergence are established, as well as the asymptotic normality. For the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model, we prove the convergence uniformly over [0; P] of the bias and the mean square convergence. Moreover, we study the speed of these convergences.

Statistical Inference for Lévy-Driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck ProcessesAbdelrazeq, Ibrahim January 2014 (has links)
When an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (or CAR(1)) process is observed at discrete times 0, h, 2h,··· [T/h]h, the unobserved driving process can be approximated from the ob- served process. Approximated increments of the driving process are used to test the assumption that the process is L\'evy-driven. Asymptotic behavior of the test statis- tic at high sampling frequencies is developed assuming that the model parameters are known. The behavior of the test statistics using an estimated parameter is also studied. If it can be concluded that the driving process is L\'evy, the empirical process of the approximated increments can then be used to carry out more precise tests of goodness-of-fit. For example, one can test whether the driving process can be modeled as a Brownian motion or a gamma process. In each case, performance of the proposed test is illustrated through simulation.

THE CHANGE POINT PROBLEM FOR TWO CLASSES OF STOCHASTIC PROCESSESUnknown Date (has links)
The change point problem is a problem where a process changes regimes because a parameter changes at a point in time called the change point. The objective of this problem is to estimate the change point and each of the parameters of the stochastic process. In this thesis, we examine the change point problem for two classes of stochastic processes. First, we consider the volatility change point problem for stochastic diffusion processes driven by Brownian motions. Then, we consider the drift change point problem for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes driven by _-stable Levy motions. In each problem, we establish the consistency of the estimators, determine asymptotic behavior for the changing parameters, and finally, we perform simulation studies to computationally assess the convergence of parameters. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2020. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Lie Analysis for Partial Differential Equations in FinanceNhangumbe, Clarinda Vitorino 06 May 2020 (has links)
Weather derivatives are financial tools used to manage the risks related to changes in the weather and are priced considering weather variables such as rainfall, temperature, humidity and wind as the underlying asset. Some recent researches suggest to model the amount of rainfall by considering the mean reverting processes. As an example, the Ornstein Uhlenbeck process was proposed by Allen [3] to model yearly rainfall and by Unami et al. [52] to model the irregularity of rainfall intensity as well as duration of dry spells. By using the Feynman-Kac theorem and the rainfall indexes we derive the partial differential equations (PDEs) that governs the price of an European option. We apply the Lie analysis theory to solve the PDEs, we provide the group classification and use it to find the invariant analytical solutions, particularly the ones compatible with the terminal conditions.
