Nonlinear expectations and stochastic calculus under uncertainty

S Peng - arxiv preprint arxiv:1002.4546, 2010 - Springer
In this book, we take the notion of nonlinear expectation as a fundamental notion of an
axiomatical system. This enables us to get directly many new and fundamental results: such …

A stochastic control approach to no-arbitrage bounds given marginals, with an application to lookback options

A Galichon, P Henry-Labordere, N Touzi - 2014 - projecteuclid.org
We consider the problem of superhedging under volatility uncertainty for an investor allowed
to dynamically trade the underlying asset, and statically trade European call options for all …

Wellposedness of second order backward SDEs

HM Soner, N Touzi, J Zhang - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2012 - Springer
We provide an existence and uniqueness theory for an extension of backward SDEs to the
second order. While standard Backward SDEs are naturally connected to semilinear PDEs …

Ambiguous volatility and asset pricing in continuous time

LG Epstein, S Ji - The Review of Financial Studies, 2013 - academic.oup.com
We formulate a model of utility for a continuous-time framework that captures aversion to
ambiguity about both volatility and drift. Corresponding extensions of some basic results in …

Dynamic programming approach to principal–agent problems

J Cvitanić, D Possamaï, N Touzi - Finance and Stochastics, 2018 - Springer
We consider a general formulation of the principal–agent problem with a lump-sum payment
on a finite horizon, providing a systematic method for solving such problems. Our approach …

[HTML][HTML] Martingale representation theorem for the G-expectation

HM Soner, N Touzi, J Zhang - Stochastic Processes and their Applications, 2011 - Elsevier
This paper considers the nonlinear theory of G-martingales as introduced by Peng (2007) in
[16, 17]. A martingale representation theorem for this theory is proved by using the …

Ambiguous volatility, possibility and utility in continuous time

LG Epstein, S Ji - Journal of Mathematical Economics, 2014 - Elsevier
This paper formulates a model of utility for a continuous time framework that captures the
decision-maker's concern with ambiguity about both the drift and volatility of the driving …

[HTML][HTML] Constructing sublinear expectations on path space

M Nutz, R Van Handel - Stochastic processes and their applications, 2013 - Elsevier
We provide a general construction of time-consistent sublinear expectations on the space of
continuous paths. It yields the existence of the conditional G-expectation of a Borel …

Moral hazard in dynamic risk management

J Cvitanić, D Possamaï, N Touzi - Management Science, 2017 - pubsonline.informs.org
We consider a contracting problem in which a principal hires an agent to manage a risky
project. When the agent chooses volatility components of the output process and the …
