We present a solution to some discounted optimal stopping problem for the maximum of a geometric Brownian motion on a finite time interval. The method of proof is based on reducing the initial optimal stopping problem with the continuation region determined by an increasing continuous boundary...

We present solutions to some discounted optimal stopping problems for the maximum process in a model driven by a Brownian motion and a compound Poisson process with exponential jumps. The method of proof is based on reducing the initial problems to integro-differential free-boundary problems...

We consider an optimal stopping problem in a certain model described by a stochastic delay differential equation. We reduce the initial problem to a free-boundary problem of parabolic type and prove the corresponding verification assertion. We also give an example of such an optimal stopping...

We present an explicit solution to an optimal stopping problem in a model described by a stochastic delay differential equation with an exponential delay measure. The model of proof is based on reducting the initial problem to a free-boundary problem and solving the latter by means of the...
