Neural variance reduction for stochastic differential equations (2023)
Journal Article
Hinds, P., & Tretyakov, M. (2023). Neural variance reduction for stochastic differential equations. Journal of Computational Finance, 27(3), 1-41. https://doi.org/10.21314/JCF.2023.010

Variance reduction techniques are of crucial importance for the efficiency of Monte Carlo simulations in finance applications. We propose the use of neural SDEs, with control variates parameterized by neural networks, in order to learn approximately...

Deep Learning of Transition Probability Densities for Stochastic Asset Models with Applications in Option Pricing (2023)
Journal Article
Su, H., Tretyakov, M. V., & Newton, D. P. (in press). Deep Learning of Transition Probability Densities for Stochastic Asset Models with Applications in Option Pricing. Management Science,

Transition probability density functions (TPDFs) are fundamental to computational finance, including option pricing and hedging. Advancing recent work in deep learning, we develop novel neural TPDF generators through solving backward Kolmogorov equat...

Simplest random walk for approximating Robin boundary value problems and ergodic limits of reflected diffusions (2023)
Journal Article
Leimkuhler, B., Sharma, A., & Tretyakov, M. V. (2023). Simplest random walk for approximating Robin boundary value problems and ergodic limits of reflected diffusions. Annals of Applied Probability, 33(3), 1904-1960. https://doi.org/10.1214/22-AAP1856

A simple-to-implement weak-sense numerical method to approximate reflected stochastic differential equations (RSDEs) is proposed and analysed. It is proved that the method has the first order of weak convergence. Together with the Monte Carlo techniq...

Consensus-based optimization via jump-diffusion stochastic differential equations (2023)
Journal Article
Kalise, D., Sharma, A., & Tretyakov, M. V. (2023). Consensus-based optimization via jump-diffusion stochastic differential equations. Mathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 33(02), 289-339. https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218202523500082

We introduce a new consensus-based optimization (CBO) method where an interacting particle system is driven by jump-diffusion stochastic differential equations (SDEs). We study well-posedness of the particle system as well as of its mean-field limit.... Read More about Consensus-based optimization via jump-diffusion stochastic differential equations.
