Pathwise super-replication via Vovk's outer measure
Since Hobson's seminal paper [D. Hobson: Robust hedging of the lookback option. In: Finance Stoch. (1998)] the connection between model-independent pricing and the Skorokhod embedding problem has been a driving force in robust finance. We establish a general pricing-hedging duality for financial derivatives which are susceptible to the Skorokhod approach. Using Vovk's approach to mathematical finance we derive a model-independent super-replication theorem in continuous time, given information on finitely many marginals. Our result covers a broad range of exotic derivatives, including lookback options, discretely monitored Asian options, and options on realized variance.

Duality for pathwise superhedging in continuous time
We provide a model-free pricing-hedging duality in continuous time. For a frictionless market consisting of $d$ risky assets with continuous price trajectories, we show that the purely analytic problem of finding the min…
BDG inequalities and their applications for model-free continuous price paths with instant enforcement
Shafer and Vovk introduce in their book \cite{ShaferVovk:2018} the notion of \emph{instant enforcement} and \emph{instantly blockable} properties. However, they do not associate these notions with any outer measure, unli…
A superhedging approach to stochastic integration
Using Vovk's outer measure, which corresponds to a minimal superhedging price, the existence of quadratic variation is shown for "typical price paths" in the space of c\`adl\`ag functions possessing a mild restriction on…
Aggregating Strategies for Long-term Forecasting
The article is devoted to investigating the application of aggregating algorithms to the problem of the long-term forecasting. We examine the classic aggregating algorithms based on the exponential reweighing. For the ge…
A pathwise approach to continuous-time trading
This paper develops a mathematical framework for the analysis of continuous-time trading strategies which, in contrast to the classical setting of continuous-time mathematical finance, does not rely on stochastic integra…
