We prove that in a discrete-time market model the lower arbitrage bound of an American contingent claim is itself an arbitrage-free price if and only if it corresponds to the price of the claim optimally exercised under some equivalent martingale measure.

We study the risk assessment of uncertain cash flows in terms of dynamic convex risk measures for processes as introduced in Cheridito et al. (Electron. J. Probab. 11(3):57–106, 2006). These risk measures take into account not only the amounts but also the timing of a cash flow. We discuss...

We investigate the problem of optimal risk sharing between agents endowed with cash-invariant choice functions which are law-invariant with respect to different reference probability measures. We motivate a discrete setting both from an operational and a theoretical point of view, and give...
