Abstract:
Abstract In a discrete-time market, we study model-independent superhedging where the semi-static superhedging portfolio consists of three parts: static positions in liquidly traded vanilla calls, static positions in other tradable, yet possibly less liquid, exotic options, and a dynamic trading strategy in risky assets under certain constraints. By considering the limit order book of each tradable exotic option and employing the Monge–Kantorovich theory of optimal transport we establish a general superhedging duality, which admits a natural connection to convex risk measures. With the aid of this duality, we derive a model-independent version of the fundamental theorem of asset pricing. The notion “finite optimal arbitrage profit”, weaker than no-arbitrage, is also introduced. It is worth noting that our method covers a large class of delta and gamma constraints.
