Item description from seller

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Continuous-time finance was developed in the late sixties and early seventies by R. C. Merton. Over the years, due to its elegance and analytical conve nience, the continuous-time paradigm has become the standard tool of anal ysis in portfolio theory and asset pricing. However, and probably because it was developed hand in hand with option pricing, in which investors' expecta tions were thought not to matter, continuous-time finance has for a long time almost entirely neglected investors' beliefs. More recently, the development of martingale pricing techniques, in which expectations playa dominant role, and the blurring boundary between those methods and the original methods of continuous-time finance based on the Ito calculus, have allowed expecta tions to regain their central role in finance. The habilitation thesis of Professor Alexandre Ziegler is entirely devoted to the role of expectations in continuous-time finance. After a brief review of the literature, the author analyzes the consequences of incomplete informa tion and heterogeneous beliefs for optimal portfolio and consumption choice and equilibrium asset pricing. Relaxing the assumption that investors can ob serve expected dividend growth perfectly, the author shows that incomplete information affects stock prices and their dynamics, thus providing a potential explanation for the asset price bubble of the late 1990s. He also demonstrates how the presence of heterogeneous beliefs among investors affects their opti mal portfolios and their optimal consumption patterns.…
