It is proved that the established event-triggered impulsive control strategy guarantees global boundedness and bounded convergence of all closed-loop signals, even if the controller operates solely at discrete moments. As an extension, the designed impulsive control is further improved based on a new gain scaling mechanism and dynamic triggering condition, enabling the closed-loop impulsive systems to achieve the asymptotic convergence of states while tolerating time-varying delays.

In light of this, we construct a tripartite game model involving safety regulatory department (SRD), autonomous taxi company (ATC), and passengers using evolutionary game theory (EGT), so as to explore the dynamic evolution of safety supervision mechanism within the entire system. Simulation results indicate that in the basic model (with fixed incentives), the system fails to stabilize at any equilibrium point, implying that a robust regulatory mechanism can never be established. Consequently, we delve into the effects of three dynamical incentive mechanisms: dynamical punishment control, dynamical reward control, and dynamical reward-punishment control. Our findings reveal that dynamical punishment control is detrimental to the stabilization of passenger supervision strategies, while dynamical reward control is highly sensitive to changes in reward parameters. In contrast, the dynamical reward-punishment model demonstrates robustness, contributing to the establishment of a safety supervision system jointly maintained by passengers and self-driving taxi companies.

We obtain an explicit pricing formula in convolution form through the combination of asymptotics and the Mellin transform method. The formula allows us to compute the derivative price in terms of a single integral calculation (Mellin convolution) instead of a double integral. Further, we obtain a closed-form pricing formula that can be calculated by using the three Greeks (Delta, Gamma, and Speed) of the Black-Scholes derivative price in a reasonably practical situation. The accuracy of the derived formula is tested through Monte Carlo simulation.
