In this paper we propose a model of asset prices consistent with the no-arbitrage principle but allowing for the existence of "bubbles". The structure of bubbles is explicitly characterized and we show that, for example, they may be of either sign. Furthermore, we discuss the existence of...

In a model with no given probability measure, we consider asset pricing in the presence of frictions and other imperfections and characterize the property of coherent pricing, a notion related to (but much weaker than) the no arbitrage property. We show that prices are coherent if and only if...
