We show how to solve Merton optimal investment stochastic control problem for Hawkesbased models in finance and insurance (Propositions 1 and 2), i.e., for a wealth portfolio X(t) consisting of a bond and a stock price described by general compound Hawkes process (GCHP), and for a capital R(t)...

Modeling and Pricing of Swaps for Financial and Energy Markets with Stochastic Volatilities is devoted to the modeling and pricing of various kinds of swaps, such as those for variance, volatility, covariance, correlation, for financial and energy markets with different stochastic volatilities,...

In this paper, we model financial markets with semi-Markov volatilities and price covarinace and correlation swaps for this markets. Numerical evaluations of varinace, volatility, covarinace and correlations swaps with semi-Markov volatility are presented as well. The novelty of the paper lies...

In this paper, we price covariance and correlation swaps for financial markets with Markov-modulated volatilities. As an example, we consider stochastic volatility driven by two-state continuous Markov chain. In this case, numerical example is presented for VIX and VXN volatility indeces (S&P...
