• Authors: Anantya Bhatnagar, Dimitri D. Vvedensky
• Abstract summary: The limitations of the classical Black-Scholes model are examined. The resulting pricing formula for a European call option replaces the classical volatility with the norm of a complex quantity. This provides market evidence for the influence of a non-classical process on the price of a security based on non-commuting operators.

• Abstract: The limitations of the classical Black-Scholes model are examined by comparing calculated and actual historical prices of European call options on stocks from several sectors of the S&P 500. Persistent differences between the two prices point to an expanded model proposed by Segal and Segal (1998) in which information not simultaneously observable or actionable with public information can be represented by an additional pseudo-Wiener process. A real linear combination of the original and added processes leads to a commutation relation analogous to that between a boson field and its canonical momentum in quantum field theory. The resulting pricing formula for a European call option replaces the classical volatility with the norm of a complex quantity, whose imaginary part is shown to compensate for the disparity between prices obtained from the classical Black-Scholes model and actual prices of the test call options. This provides market evidence for the influence of a non-classical process on the price of a security based on non-commuting operators.

  We consider a dynamic model with the consumers' preferences as well as price sensitivity varying over time. We measure the performance of a dynamic pricing policy via regret, which is the expected revenue loss compared to a clairvoyant that knows the sequence of model parameters in advance. Our regret analysis results not only demonstrate optimality of the proposed policy but also show that for policy planning it is essential to incorporate available structural information.

  In quadratic fermionic models we determine a quantum correction to the work statistics after a sudden and a time-dependent driving. Such a correction lies in the non-commutativity of the initial quantum state and the time-dependent Hamiltonian. Thanks to the latter, one can assess the onset of non-classical signatures in the KDQ distribution of work.

  Traditional time-series econometric methods often appear incapable of capturing the true complexity of the multi-level interactions driving the price dynamics. By adopting a state-of-the-art second-order optimization algorithm, we train a Bayesian bilinear neural network with temporal attention. By addressing the use of predictive distributions to analyze errors and uncertainties associated with the estimated parameters and model forecasts, we thoroughly compare our Bayesian model with traditional ML alternatives.
