The purpose of this paper is studying the valuation of option prices in Incomplete markets. A market is said to be incomplete if the given traded assets are insufficient to hedge a contingent claim. This situation occurs, for example, when the underlying stock process follows jump-diffusion processes. Due to the jump part, it is impossible to construct a hedging portfolio with stocks and riskless assets. Contrary to the case of a complete market in which only one equivalent martingale measure exists, there are infinite numbers of equivalent martingale measures in an incomplete market. Our research here is focusing on risk minimizing hedging strategy and its associated minimal martingale measure under the jump-diffusion processes. Based on this risk minimizing hedging strategy, we characterize the dynamics of a risky asset and derive the valuation formula for an option price. The main contribution of this paper is to obtain an analytical formula for a European option price under the jump-diffusion processes using the minimal martingale measure.

Choi [1] identified and characterized the limiting diffusion of this diploid model by defining discrete generator for the rescaled Markov chain. In this note, we define the operator of projection $S_t$ on limiting diffusion and new measure $dQ=S_tdP$. We show the martingale property on this operator and measure. Also we conclude that the martingale problem for diffusion operator of projection is well-posed.

We study a limit problem of reflected solutions of parabolic stochastic partial differential equations driven by martingale measures. The existence of solutions is found in an extension of the work with respect to white noise by Donati-Martin and Pardoux [4]. We show that if a certain sequence of driving martingale measures converges, the corresponding solutions also converge in the Skorohod topology.

This paper studies the problem of option pricing in an incomplete market. The market incompleteness comes from the discontinuity of the underlying asset price process which is, in particular, assumed to be a compound Poisson process. To find a reasonable price for a European contingent claim, we first find the unique minimal martingale measure and get a price by taking an expectation of the payoff under this measure. To get a closed-form price, we use an asymptotic expansion. In case where the minimal martingale measure is a signed measure, we use a sequence of martingale measures (probability measures) that converges to the equivalent martingale measure in the limit to compute the price. Again, we get a closed form of asymptotic option price. It is the Black-Scholes price and a correction term, when the distribution of the return process has nonzero skewness up to the first order.

We consider a type of large deviation Principle(LDP) using Freidlin-Wentzell exponential estimates for the solutions to perturbed stochastic differential equations(SDEs) driven by Martingale measure(Gaussian noise). We are using exponential tail estimates and exit probability of a diffusion process. Referring to Freidlin-Wentzell inequality, we want to show another approach to get LDP for the solutions to SDEs.

The limiting diffusion of special diploid model can be defined as a discrete generator for the rescaled Markov chain. Choi([2]) defined the operator of projection $S_t$ on limiting diffusion and new measure $dQ=S_tdP$. and showed the martingale property on this operator and measure. Let $P_{\rho}$ be the unique solution of the martingale problem for $\mathcal{L}_0$ starting at ${\rho}$ and ${\pi}_1,{\pi}_2,{\cdots},{\pi}_n$ the projection of $E^n$ on $x_1,x_2,{\cdots},x_n$. In this note we define $$dQ_{\rho}=S_tdP_{\rho}$$ and show that $Q_{\rho}$ solves the martingale problem for $\mathcal{L}_{\pi}$ starting at ${\rho}$.

In this paper we consider the concept of statistical causality in continuous time between flows of information, represented by filtrations. Then we relate the given concept of causality to the equivalent change of measure that plays an important role in mathematical finance. We give necessary and sufficient conditions, in terms of statistical causality, for extremality of measure in the set of martingale measures. Also, we have considered the extremality of measure which involves the stopping time and the stopped processes, and obtained similar results. Finally, we show that the concept of unique equivalent martingale measure is strongly connected to the given concept of causality and apply this result to the continuous market model.

The square of Brownian density process $Q^\lambda$ is defined where $\lambda$ is a parameter. Applying limit theorems of stochastic integrals w.r.t. martingale measure, we prove a weak limit theorem for $Q^\lambda$ in $D_{S'(R^d)}[0,1]$.

Let $S(R^d)$ be the Schwartz space of infinitely differentiable functions on $R^d$ which vanish at $\infty$ and $S'(R^d)$ be its dual space. The theory of stochastic differential equations(SDEs) governing processes that takes values in the dual of countably Hilbertian nuclear space such as $S'(R^d)$ studied by many authors(e.g [M],[KM]). Let M be a martingale measure defined by Walsh[W], then M can be considered as a $S'(R^d)$-valued process in a certain condition i.e. M has a version of $S'(R^d)$-valued martingale process. (See [W] for detailed discussion)

This paper considers the problems of martingale measures and risk-minimizing hedging strategies in the market with restricted information. By constructing a general restricted information market model, the explicit relation of arbitrage and the minimal martingale measure between two different information markets are discussed. Also a link among all equivalent martingale measures under restricted information market is given. As an example of restricted information markets, this paper constitutes a jump-diffusion process model and presents a risk minimizing problem under different information. Through $It\hat{o}$ formula and projection results in Schweizer[13], the explicit optimal strategy for different market information are given.
