In this paper we reconsider the pricing of options in incomplete continuous time markets. We first discuss option pricing with idiosyncratic stochastic volatility. This leads, of course, to an averaged Black-Scholes price formula. Our proof of this result uses a new formalization of idiosyncrasy...

Abstract Irrespective of the statistical model under study, the derivation of limits,in the Le Cam sense, of sequences of local experiments (see [7]-[10]) oftenfollows along very similar lines, essentially involving differentiability in quadraticmean of square roots of (conditional) densities....

This paper introduces rank-based tests for the cointegrating rank in an Error CorrectionModel with i.i.d. elliptical innovations. The tests are asymptotically distribution-free,and their validity does not depend on the actual distribution of the innovations. Thisresult holds despite the fact...
