In this paper we study the formation of financial bubbles in the valuation of defaultable claims in a reduced-form setting. The birth of a bubble is caused by the impact of trading activity of investors, who consider the claim to be a safe investment under some circumstances. We also show how microeconomic interactions may, at an aggregate level, determine a shift in the martingale measure. In this way we establish a connection between our approach and the martingale theory of bubbles; see [F…

Mathematical Models for Financial Bubbles
Financial bubbles have been present in the history of financial markets from the early days up to the modern age. An asset is said to exhibit a bubble when its market value exceeds its fundamental
Asset price bubbles in financial networks
Asset price bubbles are commonly defined as the difference between the market value of an asset and its fundamental value. In this work, we study the two main stages characterizing the evolution of
Liquidity Induced Asset Bubbles via Flows of ELMMs

We consider a constructive model for asset price bubbles, where the market price $W$ is endogenously determined by the trading activity on the market and the fundamental price $W^F$ is exogenously
Financial asset price bubbles under model uncertainty

We study the concept of financial bubbles in a market model endowed with a set P${\mathcal {P}}$ of probability measures, typically mutually singular to each other. In this setting, we investigate a
Asset Price Bubbles in market models with proportional transaction costs

We study asset price bubbles in market models with proportional transaction costs $\lambda\in (0,1)$ and finite time horizon $T$ in the setting of [49]. By following [28], we define the fundamental

Under the condition that short-selling is limited, it is proved the existence of a unique equilibrium price and it is shown that it incorporates the speculative value of possibly reselling the derivative.

The impact of transaction costs on asset price bubbles is investigated and it is shown that the model intrinsically includes the birth of a bubble.

In the present work we consider a novel approach to model the dynamic of financial bubbles. In particular, we exploit a technique based on trinomial trees, which is mainly inspired by the typical

It turns out that the option value depends critically on the definition of admissible strategy, and that the standard mathematical definition may not be consistent with the definitions used for trading.

A Mathematical Theory of Financial Bubbles
Over the last 10 years or so a mathematical theory of bubbles has emerged, in the spirit of a martingale theory based on an absence of arbitrage, as opposed to an equilibrium theory. This paper
