In this paper, we consider the optimal reinsurance and investment problem for the insurance company, where the insurer can purchase per-loss reinsurance and invest the surplus in a financial market, and the insurer’s claim liabilities and capital gains in financial market are negatively...

In this paper, we consider a robust optimal reinsurance problem with dependent risks for an ambiguity-averse/loving insurer to minimize the probability of absolute ruin involving the penalization of model ambiguity. Instead of the extreme ambiguity aversion towards one line of insurance business...

We show that the recent results on the Fundamental Theorem of Asset Pricing and the super-hedging theorem in the context of model uncertainty can be extended to the case in which the options available for static hedging (hedging options) are quoted with bid-ask spreads. In this set-up, we need...

For $\alpha \in (1, 2)$, we present a generalized central limit theorem for $\alpha$-stable random variables under sublinear expectation. The foundation of our proof is an interior regularity estimate for partial integro-differential equations (PIDEs). A classical generalized central limit...

This paper studies the utility maximization problem on the terminal wealth with both random endowments and proportional transaction costs. To deal with unbounded random payoffs from some illiquid claims, we propose to work with the acceptable portfolios defined via the consistent price system...

In one dimension, the theory of the $G$-normal distribution is well-developed, and many results from the classical setting have a nonlinear counterpart. Significant challenges remain in multiple dimensions, and some of what has already been discovered is quite nonintuitive. By answering several...

We study a doubly reflected backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with integrable parameters and the related Dynkin game. When the lower obstacle $L$ and the upper obstacle $U$ of the equation are completely separated, we construct a unique solution of the doubly reflected BSDE by...

We determine the optimal strategies for purchasing term life insurance and for investing in a risky financial market in order to maximize the probability of reaching a bequest goal. We extend our previous work, Bayraktar et al. 2014a, Section 3.1, in two important ways: (1) we assume that the...

We analyze the valuation partial differential equation for European contingent claims in a general framework of stochastic volatility models where the diffusion coefficients may grow faster than linearly and degenerate on the boundaries of the state space. We allow for various types of model...

We study a risk sensitive control version of the lifetime ruin probability problem. We consider a sequence of investments problems in Black-Scholes market that includes a risky asset and a riskless asset. We present a differential game that governs the limit behavior. We solve it explicitly and...
