The generalized fuzzy present value of a security is defined here as fuzzy valued utility of cash flow. The generalized fuzzy present value cannot depend on the value of future cash flow. There exists such a generalized fuzzy present value which is not a fuzzy present value in the sense given by...

The book is divided into five parts. The essence of behavioural finance is presented in the first parts. Fuzzy generalizations of some mathematical concepts are presented in the second part. The impact of selected behavioural premises for imprecise estimation of expected return is described in...

This paper presents a tractable model of non-linear dynamics of market returns using a Langevin approach.Due to non-linearity of an interaction potential, the model admits regimes of both small and large return fluctuations. Langevin dynamics are mapped onto an equivalent quantum mechanical (QM)...

In what follows we outline briefly the Credit Support Annex and how it impacts securities pricing. We then proceed to discuss synthetic forward rate calculation and the FX forward invariance relationship from which we show how to calculate CSA collateral adjusted discount factors using GBP...

Presented is the formulation for determining the exact, expected growth-optimal fraction of equity to risk for all conditions, rather than merely the asymptotic growth-optimal fraction. The formulation presented represents the surface in the leverage space manifold, wherein the loci at the peak...

The ultimate goal of this note is to provide a background for, and describe, the Longstaff-Schwartz LSM (Least-Squares Monte Carlo) algorithm for evaluating derivatives with early (American/Bermudan) exercise.The reason for writing yet another paper on the matter is that this method is often...

This paper discusses the relation between forward price models (FPM) and the so called implied volatility term structure (VTS). We start by considering the case of pure deterministic forward price volatilities and suppose both forward contracts and at-the-money (ATM) options, on a same...

This paper presents an analytic approximation formula for pricing zero-coupon bonds, when the dynamics of the short-term interest rate are driven by a one-factor mean-reverting process in which changes in the volatility of the interest rate are a function of the level of the interest rate
