Simulating long-term impacts of mortality shocks: learning from the cholera pandemic

Nicole El Karoui, Kaouther Hadji, Sarah Kaakai

The aim of this paper is to study the long-term consequence on longevity of a mortality shock. We adopt an historical and modeling approach to study how the population evolution fo…

Birth Death Swap population in random environment and aggregation with two timescales

Sarah Kaakai, Nicole El Karoui

This paper deals with the stochastic modeling of a class of heterogeneous population in a random environment, called birth-death-swap. In addition to demographic events, swap event…

Dynamics of multivariate default system in random environment

Nicole El Karoui, Monique Jeanblanc, Ying Jiao

We consider a multivariate default system where random environmental information is available. We study the dynamics of the system in a general setting and adopt the point of view…

Ramsey Rule with Progressive utility and Long Term Affine Yields Curves

Nicole El Karoui, Mohamed Mrad, Caroline Hillairet

The purpose of this paper relies on the study of long term affine yield curves modeling. It is inspired by the Ramsey rule of the economic literature, that links discount rate and…

Capacities, Measurable Selection and Dynamic Programming Part II: Application in Stochastic Control Problems

Nicole El Karoui, Xiaolu Tan

We provide an overview on how to use the measurable selection techniques to derive the dynamic programming principle for a general stochastic optimal control/stopping problem. By c…

Monotone stability of quadratic semimartingales with applications to unbounded general quadratic BSDEs

Pauline Barrieu, Nicole El Karoui

In this paper, we study the stability and convergence of some general quadratic semimartingales. Motivated by financial applications, we study simultaneously the semimartingale and…

Stochastic Utilities With a Given Optimal Portfolio : Approach by Stochastic Flows

N. El Karoui, Mohamed M'Rad

The paper generalizes the construction by stochastic flows of consistent utility processes introduced by M. Mrad and N. El Karoui in (2010). The utilities random fields are defined…

An Exact Connection between two Solvable SDEs and a Nonlinear Utility Stochastic PDE

Nicole El Karoui, Mohamed Mrad

Motivated by the work of Musiela and Zariphopoulou \cite{zar-03}, we study the Itô random fields which are utility functions for any . The main tool is the marginal…

On Azéma-Yor processes, their optimal properties and the Bachelier-drawdown equation

Laurent Carraro, Nicole El Karoui, Jan Obłój

We study the class of Azéma-Yor processes defined from a general semimartingale with a continuous running maximum process. We show that they arise as unique strong solutions of the…
