Optimal transport and Skorokhod embedding

M Beiglböck, AMG Cox, M Huesmann - Inventiones mathematicae, 2017 - Springer
The Skorokhod embedding problem is to represent a given probability as the distribution of
Brownian motion at a chosen stopping time. Over the last 50 years this has become one of …

The Root solution to the multi-marginal embedding problem: an optimal stopping and time-reversal approach

AMG Cox, J Obłój, N Touzi - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2019 - Springer
We provide a complete characterisation of the Root solution to the Skorokhod embedding
problem (SEP) by means of an optimal stopping formulation. Our methods are purely …

Robust option pricing with volatility term structure--An empirical study for variance options

AMG Cox, AM Grass - arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.09201, 2023 - arxiv.org
The robust option pricing problem is to find upper and lower bounds on fair prices of
financial claims using only the most minimal assumptions. It contrasts with the classical …

[HTML][HTML] Root's barrier, viscosity solutions of obstacle problems and reflected FBSDEs

P Gassiat, H Oberhauser, G Dos Reis - Stochastic Processes and their …, 2015 - Elsevier
We revisit work of Rost (1976), Dupire (2005) and Cox–Wang (2013) on connections

Delayed switching identities and multi-marginal solutions to the Skorokhod embedding problem

AMG Cox, AM Grass - arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.04218, 2023 - arxiv.org
In this article, we consider a generalisation of the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) with
a delayed starting time. In the delayed SEP, we look for stopping times which embed a given …

Perkins embedding for general starting laws

A Grass - arXiv preprint arXiv:2307.03618, 2023 - arxiv.org
The Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) is to represent a given probability measure as a
Brownian motion $ B $ at a particular stopping time. In recent years particular attention has …

A free boundary characterisation of the Root barrier for Markov processes

P Gassiat, H Oberhauser, CZ Zou - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2021 - Springer
We study the existence, optimality, and construction of non-randomised stopping times that
solve the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for Markov processes which satisfy a duality …

On the Root solution to the Skorokhod embedding problem given full marginals

A Richard, X Tan, N Touzi - SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2020 - SIAM
This paper examines the Root solution of the Skorokhod embedding problem given full
marginals on some compact time interval. Our results are obtained by limiting arguments …
