3 FBM Definition H (0, 1) Hurst parameter. A continuous Gaussian process W H on the probability space (Ω,A,F,P) with W H (0) = 0, W H (t) being a random variable with vanishing mean for all t 0 and E[W(t) H W H (s)] = 1 2 (t2h +s 2H t s 2H ), s,t 0, is called fractional Brownian motion (fbm). H = 1/2: Brownian motion. Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 3

4 FBM: Backward equations Consider the following problem: let the evolution of the underlying S under a pricing measure Q be given by ds(t) = rs(t)dt+σs(t)dw H (t), S(0) = S 0 > 0, 0 t T, where r,σ > 0 are constants. Then the price P(t) of a contingent claim at time t with payoff g(x) is given by P(t) = e r(t t) Ẽ Q [g(s T ) F H t ], Ẽ Q quasi-conditional expectation under the measure Q. Proof. See [Benth 03] or [Necula 02]. Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 4

5 FBM: Backward equations Under suitable integrability and smoothness assumptions holds the following analog of the Feynman-Kac theorem ([Benth 03], [Elliot et al. 03]). Theorem Let u(t, s) denote the solution of the backward equation t u+hσ 2 t γ s 2 ss u+rs s u ru = 0 }{{} A(t)u u(t,s) = g(s), s R + where γ = 2H 1, H (0,1) (so that γ ( 1,1)). Then P(t) = u(t,s(t)). Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 5

6 Ex. 1: Time-inhomogeneous Diffusion (t γ b,t γ σ,0), b R d,γ ( 1,1),σ R d d >0. A BS (t)ϕ(x) = t γ b ϕ(x)+t γ1 2 tr[σd2 ϕ(x)]. where A is defined by for γ ] 1,1[. t u t γ Au = f on J D, (1) A := γ +1 2 u(0) = u 0, (2) n j,k=1 a j,k (x), x j x k Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 6

7 Ex. 2: Time-inhomogeneous Jump-Diffusion (d = 1) (0,t δα 1 σ 2,k(t,z)) z t δ k(t,z) = t δα 1e M z 1+α, σ > 0, δ (0,1), M > 1, α (0,2) and t (0,T). A(t) of X(t) reads A(t) = A BS (t)+a J (t), ( A J (t)ϕ(x) = ϕ(x+z) ϕ(x) zϕ (x) ) k(t,z)dz, A BS (t)ϕ(x) = t δα 11 2 σ2 ϕ (x). Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 7

8 Ex. 2: Time-inhomogeneous Jump-Diffusion (d = 1) Weak formulation: Parametric bilinear forms a(, ), a J (, ) and a BS (, ) for ϕ(x),ψ(x) C 0 (Rd ) are given for 0 < t < T by Questions: a(t;ϕ,ψ) = a Diff (t;ϕ,ψ) +a J (t;ϕ,ψ), a J (t;ϕ,ψ) = (A J (t)ϕ,ψ), a Diff (t;ϕ,ψ) = (A BS (t)ϕ,ψ). meaning of (, )? H < 1/2 = γ = 2H 1 < 0: a Diff (t;ϕ,ϕ) as t 0. Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 8

9 Abstract forward problem For a bounded Lipschitz domain D R d, d 1 and a finite time interval I := (0, T), consider forward parabolic problem: find u such that t u t γ Au = f on I D, u(0) = g, A L(V,V ) nondegenerate, elliptic in V H H V. Ch. Schwab September 27, 2011 p. 9
