We consider a discrete-time financial market model where, in addition to finitely many dynamically traded assets, there are also (possibly infinitely many) static options to choose from. We introduce the concept of small cones of random variables and present a sufficient condition for the attainable positions in the market to be closed in probability. A fundamental theorem of asset pricing is shown in the present context. Utility maximization will also be considered. We will provide economically meaningful examples of infinite dimensional small cones to demonstrate the pertinence of our approach.
We investigate a continuous-time financial market where the asset price exhibits weak (sublinear) mean reversion and has a nonzero drift. Complementing earlier work on strong (superlinear) mean reversion, we show that, for an investor maximizing expected exponential utility, the certainty equivalent grows as $O(T^{2\be...
We give a two-period counterexample to the absence of arbitrage for the posterior-weighted pricing rule in Estimate nothing by Duembgen and Rogers. Both physical models have strictly positive transition densities, and each model is equipped with an equivalent martingale measure. Nevertheless, the mixed price of a singl...

Motivated by discrete price quotes in continuous time, we seek a fundamental theorem based on no arbitrage rather than a condition on limiting trading opportunities. We consider a vector of discounted prices taking values in a locally finite subset of $R^d$ in continuous time. For a locally bounded c\`adl\`ag price, we...
We present a statically and dynamically arbitrage-free European option market model with smooth interpolation between option prices, based on the SANOS framework, and prove that its dynamics admit a unique strong solution. In spirit, it is a stochastic model for local volatility when the latter is used as a representat...
