O trabalho tem como objetivo ser uma introdução ao estudo de mercados financeiros tratados em tempo discreto com horizonte finito, bem como a dinâmica dos ativos financeiros principais. Descrevemos os tipos de ativos negociados em nosso mercado, dando enfoque aos contratos. Elaboraremos a hipótese central do modelo, a ausência de arbitragem e assim mostraremos como poderemos encontrar um preço correto ou então apresentaremos um intervalo de preços para os contratos. Posteriormente, mostraremos resultados gerais relativos à correta precificação de contratos, usando para isso os instrumentos de processos estocásticos e martingais. Apresentaremos alguns exemplos a título de ilustração.
The dissertation aims to be an introduction to the study of financial markets in discrete time with finite horizon, as well as the dynamics of the main financial assets. We describe the types of assets traded in the market, focusing on contracts. We will elaborate the central hypothesis of the model, the absence of arbitrage and thus show how we can find a correct price or, at least, a range of prices of the contracts. Subsequently, we will show general results regarding how to find correct prices for contracts, using the machinery of stochastic processes and martingales.As an illustration, we present some examples.

Worldwide, the continuously growing air traffic induces a need for new ATM concepts to be defined. One possibility is using a more decentralized system predicated mainly around free routings (Free Flight), for a more flexible management of airspace. The present study first highlights the discrepancies and inefficiencies of the current best flightplan optimizing software that use the Cost Index concept before departure. It then investigates techniques to perform enhanced flight-plan optimizations en-route, with algorithms that are less complex than using the Cost Index. The long-haul flight leg that is considered through the simulations is London (UK) - Boston (MA, USA), flown on a constant flight level. This study shows that running another optimization at the Top of Climb point reduces the average delay at destination from 6.9 minutes to 5.0 minutes. Then, the more futuristic method of considering discrete flight-plan optimizations, while en-route using updated weather forecasts, provides results that are more interesting. If the weather forecasts and the optimizations are done simultaneously every 3-hour or 1.5-hour, the average delay respectively becomes 2.6 minutes or 2.0 minutes. The second part of this work investigates ways of performing a Linear Program to fly a route close to a 4D-trajectory. This study provides ways of determining the exact weight values for the different state variables used in the cost function to minimize.

Full textA quantum (Q) computer (QC), i.e. utilizing the resources of Q physics, superposition of states and entanglement, could fournish an exponential gain in computing time. A simulation using such resources is called a Q simulation (QS). The advantage of QSs over classical ones is well established at the theoretical, i.e. software level. Their practical benefit requires their implementation on a Q hardware. The QC, i.e. the universal one (see below), has not seen the light of day yet, but the efforts in this direction are both growing and diverse. Also, QS has already been illustrated by numerous experimental proofs of principle, thanks too small-size and specific-task Q computers or simulators. Q walks (QWs) are particularly-studied QS schemes, being elementary bricks to conceive any Q algorithm, i.e. to achieve so-called universal Q computation. The present thesis is a step more towards a simulation of Q field theories based on discrete-time QWs (DTQWs). Indeed, it is shown, in certain cases, how DTQWs can simulate, in the continuum, the action of Yang-Mills gauge fields on fermionic matter, and the retroaction of the latter on the gauge-field dynamics. The suggested schemes preserve gauge invariance on the spacetime lattice, i.e. not only in the continuum. In the (1+2)D Abelian case, consistent lattice equivalents to both Maxwell’s equations and the current conservation are suggested. In the (1+1)D non-Abelian case, a lattice version of the non-Abelian field strength is suggested. Moreover, it is shown how this fermionic matter based on DTQWs can be coupled to relativistic gravitational fields of the continuum, i.e. to curved spacetimes, in several spatial dimensions

Full textIncludes bibliographical references (p. 65-66).
In this thesis, we derive an exact deterministic nonlinear observer to compute the continuous-time states of inertial navigation system based on partial discrete measurements, the so-called strapdown problem. Nonlinear contraction theory is used as the main analysis tool. The hierarchical structure of the system physics is sytematically exploited and the use of nonlinear measurements, such as distances to time-varying reference points, is discussed. Effects of bounded errors on model and measurements are quantified, and can be used for active measurement selection. Work on vehicle state computation is carried out by using a similar observer design method. Finally, the approach is used to compute the head orientation of a simulated planar hopping robot, where the information provided by the observer is used for head stabilization and obstacle jump.

Full textWigner distribution is considered to be one of the most powerful tools for time-frequency analysis of rumvstationary signals. Wigner distribution is a bilinear signal transformation which provides two dimensional time-frequency characterization of one dimensional signals. Although much work has been done recently in signal analysis and applications using Wigner distribution, not many synthesis methods for Wigner distribution have been reported in the literature.
This thesis is concerned with signal synthesis from discrete-time Wigner distribution and from discrete-time pseudo-Wigner distribution and their applications in noise filtering and signal separation. Various algorithms are developed to reconstruct signals from the modified or specified Wigner distribution and pseudo-Wigner distribution which generally do not have a valid Wigner distributions or valid pseudo-Wigner distribution structures. These algorithms are successfully applied to the noise filtering and signal separation problems.

Full textThis dissertation studies the computation methods of pricing of Asian options. Asian options are options in which the underlying variable is the average price over a period of time. Because of this, Asian options have a lower volatility and this render them cheaper relative to their European counterparts. Asian options belong to the so-called path-dependent derivatives; they are among the most difficult to price and hedge both analytically and numerically. In practice, it is only discrete Asian options that are traded, however continuous Asian options are used for studying purposes. Several approaches have been proposed in the literature, including Monte Carlo simulations, tree-based methods, Taylor’s expansion, partial differential equations, and analytical ap- proximations among others. When using partial differential equations for pricing of continuous time Asian options, the high dimensionality is problematic. In this dissertation we focus on the discrete time methods. We start off by explaining the binomial tree method, and our last chapter presents the very exciting and relatively simple method of Tsao and Huang, using Taylor approximations. The main papers that are used in this dissertation are articles by Jan Vecer (2001); LCG Rogers (1995); Eric Benhamou (2001); Gianluca Fusai (2007); Kamizono, Kariya and Nakatsuma (2006) and Tsao and Huang (2007). The author has provided computations, including graphs and tables dispersed over the different chapters, to demonstrate the utility of the methods. We observe various parameters of influence such as correlation, volatility, strike, etc. A further contribution by the author of this dissertation is, in particular, in Chapter 5, in the presentation of the work of Tsao et al. Here we have provided slightly more detailed explanations and again some further computational tables.

Full textOs métodos tradicionais de avaliação de projetos vem sendo questionados por não considerarem possíveis incertezas associadas ao investimento. Neste contexto, a Teoria das Opções Reais busca aplicar o conceito de opções a ativos reais, com a finalidade de agregar o valor da flexibilidade gerencial aos métodos tradicionais de avaliação de investimentos. A avaliação por Opções Reais é considerada complexa devido à difícil modelagem de incertezas e das flexibilidades, além da necessidade de se ter mercados completos. Este estudo busca incorporar a flexibilidade gerencial à avaliação de projetos através do uso de Árvores Binomiais de Decisão, com probabilidades neutras ao risco, para a avaliação por Opções Reais em Tempo Discreto. Utilizamos programação dinâmica para a aplicação desta metodologia, a qual é computacionalmente intensa, porém de solução simples e intuitiva. A aplicação prática foi realizada através da valoração da opção de expandir e da opção de abandonar enfrentada por uma empresa de Tecnologia.
The traditional methods of Valuation are being questioned as they do not consider possible uncertainties related to investment decisions. In this scenario, Real Options Theory applies option`s concept to real assets, aiming to add the value of managerial flexibility to traditional Valuation techniques. The evaluation for Real Options is considered complex due to the difficulty of modeling uncertainties and flexibilities, beyond the need to have complete markets. This work aims to add the managerial flexibility to Valuation by binomial lattice and decision tree techniques, with risk neutral probabilities, in a discrete time approach to evaluation for Real Options. Using dynamic programming to apply this method, which is computationally intense, but simple and intuitive. The practical application consists in valuing an option to expand and to abandon faced by an IT company.

The cost of implementation of discrete-time filters is often strongly dependent on the number of non-zero filter coefficients or the precision with which the coefficients are represented. This thesis addresses the design of sparse and bit-efficient filters under different constraints on filter performance in the context of frequency response approximation, signal estimation, and signal detection. The results have applications in several areas, including the equalization of communication channels, frequency-selective and frequency-shaping filtering, and minimum-variance distortionless-response beamforming. The design problems considered admit efficient and exact solutions in special cases. For the more difficult general case, two approaches are pursued. The first develops low-complexity algorithms that are shown to yield optimal or near-optimal designs in many instances, but without guarantees. The second focuses on optimal algorithms based on the branch-and-bound procedure. The complexity of branch-and-bound is reduced through the use of bounds that are good approximations to the true optimal cost. Several bounding methods are developed, many involving relaxations of the original problem. The approximation quality of the bounds is characterized and efficient computational methods are discussed. Numerical experiments show that the bounds can result in substantial reductions in computational complexity.
