In this paper, we analyze Nash equilibria between electricity producers selling their production on an electricity market and buying CO2 emission allowances on an auction carbon market. The producers' strategies integrate the coupling of the two markets via the cost functions of the electricity...

In this paper, we analyze Nash equilibria between electricity producers selling their production on an electricity market and buying \co2 emission allowances on an auction carbon market. The producers' strategies integrate the coupling of the two markets via the cost functions of the electricity...

We construct a confined Langevin type process aimed to satisfy a mean no-permeability condition at the boundary. This Langevin process lies in the class of conditional McKean Lagrangian stochastic models studied by Bossy, Jabir and Talay (2010) [5]. The confined process considered here is a...

In this paper we present two parallel Monte Carlo based algorithms for pricing multi-dimensional Bermudan/American options. First approach relies on computation of the optimal exercise boundary while the second relies on classification of continuation and exercise values. We also evaluate the...

[eng] Insurance-Company Risk Connected with Life-Insurance Contracts . by Christophe Berthelot, Mireille Bossy and Nathalie Pistre . Life-insurance contracts in francs are in fact capitalisation contracts which provide a return with the dual advantage of offering a guaranteed rate and benefiting...

In this note, we present an existence result of a Nash equilibrium between electricity producers selling their production on an electricity market and buying CO2 emission allowances on an auction carbon market. The producers' strategies integrate the coupling of the two markets via the cost...

We are interested in model risk control problems. We study a strategy for the trader which, in a sense, guarantees good performances whatever is the unknown model for the assets of his/her portfolio. The trader chooses trading strategies to decrease the risk and therefore acts as a minimizer;...

We study the approximation problem of Ef(XT) by Ef(XTn), where (Xt) is the solution of a stochastic differential equation, (Xtn) is defined by the Euler discretization scheme with step Tn, and f is a given function. For smooth f's, Talay and Tubaro had shown that the error Ef(XT) − Ef(XTn) can...

In this paper we study the convergence rate of the numerical approximation of the quantiles of the marginal laws of (Xt), where (Xt) is a diffusion process, when one uses a Monte Carlo method combined with the Euler discretization scheme. Our convergence rate estimates are obtained under two...
