Dispensing with optimal control: a new approach for the pricing and management of share buyback contracts
This paper introduces a novel methodology for the pricing and management of share buyback contracts, overcoming the limitations of traditional optimal control methods, which frequently encounter difficulties with high-dimensional state spaces and the intricacies of selecting appropriate risk penalty or risk aversion parameter. Our methodology applies optimized heuristic strategies to maximize the contract's value. The computation of this value utilizes classical methods typically used for pricing path-dependent options. Additionally, our approach naturally leads to the formulation of a $\Delta$-hedging strategy and disentangles therefore the repurchase strategy from the hedging of the payoff.

ManagementSchedulingEstimating the Gains (and Losses) of Revenue Management
Despite the wide adoption of revenue management in many industries such as airline, railway, and hospitality, there is still scarce empirical evidence on the gains or losses of such strategies compared to uniform pricing…
ManagementPolicy gradient learning methods for stochastic control with exit time and applications to share repurchase pricing
We develop policy gradients methods for stochastic control with exit time in a model-free setting. We propose two types of algorithms for learning either directly the optimal policy or by learning alternately the value f…
