This is the <i>entropy segmentation</i> method achieved by means of convex programming, thanks to which we divide the claim no-arbitrage prices interval into two halves, the buyer’s and the seller’s prices at successive entropy levels. Classical buyer’s and seller’s prices arise when the entropy level approaches 0. Next, we apply Fenchel duality to these primal programs to characterize the hedging positions, unifying in the same expression the cases of super (resp. sub) replication (arising when the entropy approaches 0) and partial replication (when entropy tends to its maximal value). We finally apply linear programming to our hedging problem to find in a price slice of the dual feasible set an optimal partial replicating portfolio with minimal CVaR. We apply our methodology to a cliquet style guarantee, using Heston’s dynamic with parameters calibrated on EUROSTOXX50 index quoted prices of European calls. This way prices and hedging positions take into account the volatility risk.</p>","PeriodicalId":18442,"journal":{"name":"Methodology and Computing in Applied Probability","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142262029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This ensures that pooled losses can be considered as being uniformly bounded. We study the no-sabotage requirement and diversification effects when the conditional mean risk-sharing rule is applied to allocate pooled losses. The no-sabotage requirement is equivalent to Efron’s monotonicity property for conditional expectations, which is known to hold under log-concavity. Elementary proofs of this result for discrete losses are provided for finite population pools. The no-sabotage requirement and diversification effects are then examined within large pools. It is shown that Efron’s monotonicity property holds asymptotically and that risk can be eliminated under fairly general conditions which are fulfilled in applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":18442,"journal":{"name":"Methodology and Computing in Applied Probability","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142262031","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We call this set the <i>general expected relative population structure </i>in the states of a G-NHMS. We then proceed by providing the new definitions of weak ergodicity in a G-NHMS and weak ergodicity with a geometrical rate of convergence. We then prove the Theorem 4 which is a new building block in the theory of G-NHMS. We also prove a similar theorem under the assumption that relative expansion of the population vanishes at infinity.We then provide a generalization of the coupling theorem for populations. We proceed then to study the asymptotic behavior of a G-NHMS when the input policy consists of independent non-homogeneous Poisson variates for each time interval <span>(left( t-1,tright] )</span>. It is founded in Theorem 7 that it displays a kind of weak ergodicity behavior, that is, it converges at each step to the row of a stable matrix.
