Focusing on capital asset returns governed by a factor structure, the Arbitrage Pricing Theory (APT) is a one-period model, in which preclusion of arbitrage over static portfolios of these assets leads to a linear relation between the expected return and its covariance with the factors. The APT,...

<Para ID="Par1">For any positive diffusion with minimal regularity, there exists a semimartingale with uniformly close paths that is a martingale under an equivalent probability. As a result, in models of asset prices based on such diffusions, arbitrage and bubbles alike disappear under proportional transaction...</para>

This paper proves the fundamental theorem of asset pricing with transaction costs, when bid and ask prices follow locally bounded càdlàg (right-continuous, left-limited) processes. The robust no free lunch with vanishing risk condition (RNFLVR) for simple strategies is equivalent to the...

In a continuous-time model with multiple assets described by cadlag processes, this paper characterizes superhedging prices, absence of arbitrage, and utility maximizing strategies, under general frictions that make execution prices arbitrarily unfavorable for high trading intensity. With such...
