CDO term structure modelling with Levy processes and the relation to market models
This paper considers the modelling of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs).
We propose a top-down model via forward rates generalizing Filipovi\'c,
Overbeck and Schmidt (2009) to the case where the forward rates are driven by a
finite dimensional L\'evy process. The contribution of this work is twofold: we
provide conditions for absence of arbitrage in this generalized framework.
Furthermore, we study the relation to market models by embedding them in the
forward rate framework in spirit of Brace, Gatarek and Musiela (1997).Comment: 16 page
Well-posedness and invariant measures for HJM models with deterministic volatility and Lévy noise
We give sufficient conditions for existence, uniqueness and ergodicity of invariant measures for Musiela's stochastic partial differential equation with deterministic volatility and a Hilbert space valued driving Lévy noise. Conditions for the absence of arbitrage and for the existence of mild solutions are also discussed
