12 Motivation Lemma For a nonnegative random variable Y with 0 < EY < and a random variable X, we define a finite measure µ by µ(b) = E[Y 1 {X B} ] for B B(R). The transform ψ of µ is given by ψ(w) = e wx µ(dx) = E[Ye wx ] for all w C R
13 : Continued Definition (Discounted transform) For a stock price process (S t ) t 0, the discounted transform is defined as for t 0, w C ψ(t, w) = E[e R t 0 rudu (S t ) w ] = E[e R t 0 rudu+wxt ] (X t ) t 0 : return process of the stock, i.e., S t = e Xt Distribution : µ(a, b, t; dx) µ(a, b, t; B) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt 1 {bxt B}] for t 0, a, b R, and B B(R).
14 : Continued Definition (Discounted transform) For a stock price process (S t ) t 0, the discounted transform is defined as for t 0, w C ψ(t, w) = E[e R t 0 rudu (S t ) w ] = E[e R t 0 rudu+wxt ] (X t ) t 0 : return process of the stock, i.e., S t = e Xt Distribution : µ(a, b, t; dx) µ(a, b, t; B) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt 1 {bxt B}] for t 0, a, b R, and B B(R).
15 : Continued Definition (Discounted transform) For a stock price process (S t ) t 0, the discounted transform is defined as for t 0, w C ψ(t, w) = E[e R t 0 rudu (S t ) w ] = E[e R t 0 rudu+wxt ] (X t ) t 0 : return process of the stock, i.e., S t = e Xt Distribution : µ(a, b, t; dx) µ(a, b, t; B) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt 1 {bxt B}] for t 0, a, b R, and B B(R).
16 : Continued µ(a, b, t; R) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt ] = ψ(t, a) Then, by lemma above, e iθx µ(a, b, t; dx) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt e ibθxt ] R = E[e R t 0 rudu+(a+ibθ)xt ] = ψ(t, a + ibθ)
17 : Continued µ(a, b, t; R) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt ] = ψ(t, a) Then, by lemma above, e iθx µ(a, b, t; dx) = E[e R t 0 rudu+axt e ibθxt ] R = E[e R t 0 rudu+(a+ibθ)xt ] = ψ(t, a + ibθ)
18 : Continued Theorem (Gil-Palaez Inversion Formula) Let µ be a finite measure on B(R). Then µ(, x] = µ(r) 2 for x with µ{x} = 0. In particular, µ(a, b, t; (, x]) = = µ(a, b, t; R) 2 ψ(t, a) 2 τ + lim δ 0 δ τ + lim δ 0 τ Z τ + lim δ 0 δ τ Z τ δ e iθx ψ( iθ) e iθx ψ(iθ) dθ 2πiθ e iθx ψ(t, a ibθ) e iθx ψ(t, a + ibθ) dθ 2πiθ e iθx ψ(t, a ibθ) e iθx ψ(t, a + ibθ) dθ 2πiθ
19 : Continued Therefore, price of the call option is E[e R T 0 ru du (ST K) + ] = E[e R T 0 ru du+x T 1{ XT log K} ] KE[e R T 0 ru du 1{ XT log K} ] = µ(1, 1, T ; (, log K]) Kµ(0, 1, T ; (, log K]) = ψ(t, 1) Kψ(T, 0) 2 Z τ + lim δ 0 δ τ e iθx (ψ(t, 1 + iθ) Kψ(t, iθ)) e iθx (ψ(t, 1 iθ) Kψ(t, iθ)) dθ 2πiθ Likewise, we can price various options including put options, bond derivatives, quatos, foreign bond options, chooser options, etc. Hence, in many cases, it suffices to find the discounted transform ψ(t, w) = E[e R t 0 rudu+wxt ]
20 : Continued Therefore, price of the call option is E[e R T 0 ru du (ST K) + ] = E[e R T 0 ru du+x T 1{ XT log K} ] KE[e R T 0 ru du 1{ XT log K} ] = µ(1, 1, T ; (, log K]) Kµ(0, 1, T ; (, log K]) = ψ(t, 1) Kψ(T, 0) 2 Z τ + lim δ 0 δ τ e iθx (ψ(t, 1 + iθ) Kψ(t, iθ)) e iθx (ψ(t, 1 iθ) Kψ(t, iθ)) dθ 2πiθ Likewise, we can price various options including put options, bond derivatives, quatos, foreign bond options, chooser options, etc. Hence, in many cases, it suffices to find the discounted transform ψ(t, w) = E[e R t 0 rudu+wxt ]

25 A Version of Feynman-Kac Theorems Preliminary : Stochastic Calculus Definition of Transform Analysis We consider continuous functions h, k : R n R and Cauchy problem f + kf = Af t with initial conditions f (0, x) = h(x). Suppose that the above Cauchy problem has a C 1,2 solution f on R + R n. Theorem Under some regularity condition on the solution f, the solution admits the stochastic representation: for all (t, x) R + R n. f (t, x) = E x [e R t 0 k(x u)du h(x t)]
26 Motivation Preliminary : Stochastic Calculus Definition of Transform Analysis Definition An R n -valued stochastic process (X t ) t 0 is called an affine diffusion if it solves the SDE: dx t = µ(x t )dt + σ(x t )dw t where (W t ) t 0 is a standard Brownian motion in R n, and µ, σσ are affine mappings on R n. Since µ and σσ are affine, they admit following representation: µ(x) = K 0 + K 1 x for some K 0 R n and K 1 reals n n σσ (x) = H 0 + n i=1 x ih1 i for some n n symmetric matrices H 0, H1 1,, Hn 1

34 Affine Processes Motivation Affine Processes : General Theory Matrix State space : D = R m + R n Transition kernel : p t (x, A) = P x (X t A) Definition A Markov process (X t) t 0 with state space D is called affine if for every (t, w) R + ir d there exist α(t, w) = (α Y (t, w), α Z (t, w)) C m C n and β(t, w) C such that E x [e w X t ] = e β(t,w)+α(t,w) x = e β(t,w)+αy (t,w) y+α Z (t,w) z for all x = (y, z) D. The affine process (X t) t 0 is said to be regular if it satisfies followings p t is stochastically continuous, i.e., p s(x, ) p t(x, ) weakly on D as s t d dt Ex [e w X t ] t=0 exists, and continuous at w = 0
35 Affine Processes : Characterization Affine Processes : General Theory Matrix Roughly speaking, a Markov process (X t ) t 0 is regular affine if and only if its infinitesimal generator A has the following form: Af (x) = dx (a kl + α I,kl, y ) 2 f (x) x k x l k,l=1 + b + βx, f (x) (c + γ, y )f (x) Z + (f (x + ξ) f (x) J f (x), χ J (ξ) )m(dξ) + D\{0} mx Z i=1 D\{0} (f (x + ξ) f (x) J (i) f (x), χ J (i) (ξ) )y i µ i (dξ) For detail, see Affine Processes and Applications in Finance by Duffie, et. al.
