On the deterministic-shift extended CIR model in a negative interest rate framework
In this paper, we propose a new exogenous model to address the problem of negative interest rates that preserves the analytical tractability of the original Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) model with a perfect fit to the observed term-structure. We use the difference of two independent CIR processes and apply the deterministic-shift extension technique. To allow for a fast calibration to the market swaption surface, we apply the Gram-Charlier expansion to calculate the swaption prices in our model. We run several numerical tests to demonstrate the strengths of this model by using Monte-Carlo techniques. In particular, the model produces close Bermudan swaption prices compared to Bloomberg's Hull-White one-factor model. Moreover, it finds constant maturity swap (CMS) rates very close to Bloomberg's CMS rates.

Fully observable non-deterministic (FOND) planning is becoming increasingly important as an approach for computing proper policies in probabilistic planning, extended temporal plans in LTL planning, and general plans in …
Planning for Temporally Extended Goals in Pure-Past Linear Temporal Logic: A Polynomial Reduction to Standard Planning
We study temporally extended goals expressed in Pure-Past LTL (PPLTL). PPLTL is particularly interesting for expressing goals since it allows to express sophisticated tasks as in the Formal Methods literature, while the …
