講演タイトル:Weak Reflection Principle for Markov processes

講演概要:The classical Reflection Principle allows one to express the joint distribution of a Brownian

motion and its running maximum through the distribution of the process itself. It relies on the

specific symmetry and continuity properties of a Brownian motion and, therefore, cannot be directly

applied to an arbitrary Markov process. I will show that, in fact, there exists a weak formulation of this

method that allows to obtain similar results for Markov processes that do not posses any strong symmetry.

I will describe the general Weak Reflection Principle and will prove its validity for diffusions and

L´evy processes. I will also demonstrate the applications of this technique in Finance, Computational

Methods, and Inverse Problems.
