Item Embargo Compound Poisson disorder problem with uniformly distributed disorder time(Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability, 2023-08) Uru, C.; Dayanık, Savaş; Sezer, Semih O.Suppose that the arrival rate and the jump distribution of a compound Poisson process change suddenly at an unknown and unobservable time. We want to detect the change as quickly as possible to take counteractions, e.g., to assure top quality of products in a production system, or to stop credit card fraud in a banking system. If we have no prior information about future disorder time, then we typically assume that the disorder is equally likely to happen any time – or has uniform distribution – over a long but finite time horizon. We solve this so-called compound Poisson disorder problem for the practically important case of unknown, unobserved, but uniformly distributed disorder time. The solution hinges on the complete separation of information flow from the hard time horizon constraint, by describing the former with an autonomous time-homogeneous one-dimensional Markov process in terms of which the detection problem translates into a finite horizon optimal stopping problem. For any given finite horizon, the solution is two-dimensional. For cases where the horizon is large and one is unwilling to set a fixed value for it, we give a one-dimensional approximation. Also, we discuss an extension where the disorder may not happen on the given interval with a positive probability. In this extended model, if no detection decision is made by the end of the horizon, then a second level hypothesis testing problem is solved to determine the local parameters of the observed process.Item Open Access Compound poisson disorder problems with nonlinear detection delay penalty cost functions(2010) Dayanik, S.The quickest detection of the unknown and unobservable disorder time, when the arrival rate and mark distribution of a compound Poisson process suddenly changes, is formulated in a Bayesian setting, where the detection delay penalty is a general smooth function of the detection delay time. Under suitable conditions, the problem is shown to be equivalent to the optimal stopping of a finite-dimensional piecewise-deterministic strongly Markov sufficient statistic. The solution of the optimal stopping problem is described in detail for the compound Poisson disorder problem with polynomial detection delay penalty function of arbitrary but fixed degree. The results are illustrated for the case of the quadratic detection delay penalty function. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.Item Open Access Statistical arbitrage in jump-diffusion models with compound poisson processes(Springer Nature, 2021-02-26) Akyildirim, E.; Fabozzi, J.F.; Goncu, A.; Sensoy, AhmetWe prove the existence of statistical arbitrage opportunities for jump-diffusion models of stock prices when the jump-size distribution is assumed to have finite moments. We show that to obtain statistical arbitrage, the risky asset holding must go to zero in time. Existence of statistical arbitrage is demonstrated via ‘buy-and-hold until barrier’ and ‘short until barrier’ strategies with both single and double barrier. In order to exploit statistical arbitrage opportunities, the investor needs to have a good approximation of the physical probability measure and the drift of the stochastic process for a given asset.
