In this paper, we prove a Donsker type approximation theorem for the Rosenblatt process, which is a selfsimilar stochastic process exhibiting long range dependence. By using numerical results and simulated data, we show that this approximation performs very well. We use this result to construct a binary market model driven by this process and we show that the model admits arbitrage opportunities.
Risk evaluation is a forecast, and its validity must be backtested. Probability distribution forecasts are used in this work and allow for more powerful validations compared to point forecasts. Our aim is to use bivariate copulas in order to characterize the in-sample copulas and to validate out-of-sample a bivariate forecast. For both set-ups, probability integral transforms (PIT) and Rosenblatt transforms are used …
Neural networks are suggested for learning a map from $d$-dimensional samples with any underlying dependence structure to multivariate uniformity in $d'$ dimensions. This map, termed DecoupleNet, is used for dependence model assessment and selection. If the data-generating dependence model was known, and if it was among the few analytically tractable ones, one such transformation for $d'=d$ is Rosenblatt's transform.…
We present a new framework for Hermite fractional financial markets, generalizing the fractional Brownian motion and fractional Rosenblatt markets. Considering pure and mixed Hermite markets, we introduce a strategy-specific arbitrage tax on the rate of transaction volume acceleration of the hedging portfolio as the prices of risky assets change, allowing us to transform Hermite markets with arbitrage opportunities t…
We study markets with no riskless (safe) asset. We derive the corresponding Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing equations for markets where there are only risky assets which have the following price dynamics: (i) continuous diffusions; (ii) jump-diffusions; (iii) diffusions with stochastic volatilities, and; (iv) geometric fractional Brownian and Rosenblatt motions. No arbitrage and market completeness conditions are…
We describe society as a nonequilibrium probabilistic system: N individuals occupy W resource states in it and produce entropy S over definite time periods. Resulting thermodynamics is however unusual because a second entropy, H, measures a typically social feature, inequality or diversity in the distribution of available resources. A symmetry phase transition takes place at Gini values 1/3, where realistic distribut…
