In this paper we derive closed form pricing formulae for the constant proportion debt obligation (CPDO) by using the Laplace transform technique. First, we present the pricing equation as a combination of a pricing problem (conditional expectation) and a static part that depends only on time. Then, we indicate that the pricing problem is in fact a pricing of a barrier option written on the shortfall. Hence, we derive explicit solutions of such barrier option problems when the shortfall follows either a diffusion or a double exponential jump diffusion process. Finally, we illustrate and discuss the results using numerical applications.

Bounded oscillation of nonlinear neutral differential equations of arbitrary order Yilmaz, YS; Zafer, Ağacık (2001-01-01) The paper is concerned with oscillation properties of n-th order neutral differential equations of the form
Exact Solutions of Some Partial Differential Equations Using the Modified Differential Transform Method Cansu Kurt, Ümmügülsüm; Ozkan, Ozan (2018-03-01) In this paper, we present the modification of the differential transform method by using Laplace transform and Pade approximation to obtain closed form solutions of linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. Some illustrative examples are given to demonstrate the activeness of the proposed technique. The obtained results ensure that this modified method is capable of solving a large number of linear and nonlinear PDEs that have wide application in science and engineering. It solves the drawbacks i...
EXACT SPIN AND PSEUDO-SPIN SYMMETRIC SOLUTIONS OF THE DIRAC-KRATZER PROBLEM WITH A TENSOR POTENTIAL VIA LAPLACE TRANSFORM APPROACH Arda, Altug; Sever, Ramazan (2012-09-28) Exact bound state solutions of the Dirac equation for the Kratzer potential in the presence of a tensor potential are studied by using the Laplace transform approach for the cases of spin- and pseudo-spin symmetry. The energy spectrum is obtained in the closed form for the relativistic as well as non-relativistic cases including the Coulomb potential. It is seen that our analytical results are in agreement with the ones given in the literature. The numerical results are also given in a table for different p...
Stability criterion for second order linear impulsive differential equations with periodic coefficients Guseinov, G. Sh.; Zafer, Ağacık (Wiley, 2008-01-01) In this paper we obtain instability and stability criteria for second order linear impulsive differential equations with periodic coefficients. Further, a Lyapunov type inequality is also established. (C) 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
Pricing and hedging of constant proportion debt obligations İşcanoğlu Çekiç, Ayşegül; Uğur, Ömür; Korn, Ralf; Department of Financial Mathematics (2011) A Constant Proportion Debt Obligation is a credit derivative which has been introduced to generate a surplus return over a riskless market return. The surplus payments should be obtained by synthetically investing in a risky asset (such as a credit index) and using a linear leverage strategy which is capped for bounding the risk. In this thesis, we investigate two approaches for investigation of constant proportion debt obligations. First, we search for an optimal leverage strategy which minimises the mean-...
