Using Dupires notion of vertical derivative, we provide a functional (path-dependent) extension of the It^os formula of Gozzi and Russo (2006) that applies to C^{0,1}-functions of continuous weak Dirichlet processes. It is motivated and illustrated by its applications to the hedging or superhedging problems of path-dependent options in mathematical finance, in particular in the case of model uncertainty

Using rough path theory, we provide a pathwise foundation for stochastic It^o integration, which covers most commonly applied trading strategies and mathematical models of financial markets, including those under Knightian uncertainty. To this end, w
e introduce the so-called Property (RIE) for c`adl`ag paths, which is shown to imply the existence of a c`adl`ag rough path and of quadratic variation in the sense of Follmer. We prove that the corresponding rough integrals exist as limits of left-point Riemann sums along a suitable sequence of partitions. This allows one to treat integrands of non-gradient type, and gives access to the powerful stability estimates of rough path theory. Additionally, we verify that (path-dependent) functionally generated trading strategies and Covers universal portfolio are admissible integrands, and that Property (RIE) is satisfied by both (Young) semimartingales and typical price paths.
This paper establishes It^os formula along a flow of probability measures associated with gene-ral semimartingales. This generalizes existing results for flow of measures on It^o processes. Our approach is to first prove It^os formula for cylindrical
polynomials and then use function approximation and localization techniques for the general case. This general form of It^os formula enables derivation of dynamic programming equations and verification theorems for McKean-Vlasov controls with jump diffusions and for McKean-Vlasov mixed regular-singular control problems. It also allows for generalizing the classical relation between the maximum principle and the dynamic programming principle to the McKean-Vlasov singular control setting, where the adjoint process is expressed in term of the derivative of the value function with respect to probability measures.
We extend the Bismut-Elworthy-Li formula to non-degenerate jump diffusions and payoff functions depending on the process at multiple future times. In the spirit of Fournie et al [13] and Davis and Johansson [9] this can improve Monte Carlo numerics f
or stochastic volatility models with jumps. To this end one needs so-called Malliavin weights and we give explicit formulae valid in presence of jumps: (a) In a non-degenerate situation, the extended BEL formula represents possible Malliavin weights as Ito integrals with explicit integrands; (b) in a hypoelliptic setting we review work of Arnaudon and Thalmaier [1] and also find explicit weights, now involving the Malliavin covariance matrix, but still straight-forward to implement. (This is in contrast to recent work by Forster, Lutkebohmert and Teichmann where weights are constructed as anticipating Skorohod integrals.) We give some financial examples covered by (b) but note that most practical cases of poor Monte Carlo performance, Digital Cliquet contracts for instance, can be dealt with by the extended BEL formula and hence without any reliance on Malliavin calculus at all. We then discuss some of the approximations, often ignored in the literature, needed to justify the use of the Malliavin weights in the context of standard jump diffusion models. Finally, as all this is meant to improve numerics, we give some numerical results with focus on Cliquets under the Heston model with jumps.
A peculiar feature of It^os calculus is that it is an integral calculus that gives no explicit derivative with a systematic differentiation theory counterpart, as in elementary calculus. So, can we define a pathwise stochastic derivative of semimarti
ngales with respect to Brownian motion that leads to a differentiation theory counterpart to It^os integral calculus? From It^os definition of his integral, such a derivative must be based on the quadratic covariation process. We give such a derivative in this note and we show that it leads to a fundamental theorem of stochastic calculus, a generalized stochastic chain rule that includes the case of convex functions acting on continuous semimartingales, and the stochastic mean value and Rolles theorems. In addition, it interacts with basic algebraic operations on semimartingales similarly to the way the deterministic derivative does on deterministic functions, making it natural for computations. Such a differentiation theory leads to many interesting applications some of which we address in an upcoming article.
We derive upper and lower bounds on the expectation of $f(mathbf{S})$ under dependence uncertainty, i.e. when the marginal distributions of the random vector $mathbf{S}=(S_1,dots,S_d)$ are known but their dependence structure is partially unknown. We
solve the problem by providing improved FH bounds on the copula of $mathbf{S}$ that account for additional information. In particular, we derive bounds when the values of the copula are given on a compact subset of $[0,1]^d$, the value of a functional of the copula is prescribed or different types of information are available on the lower dimensional marginals of the copula. We then show that, in contrast to the two-dimensional case, the bounds are quasi-copulas but fail to be copulas if $d>2$. Thus, in order to translate the improved FH bounds into bounds on the expectation of $f(mathbf{S})$, we develop an alternative representation of multivariate integrals with respect to copulas that admits also quasi-copulas as integrators. By means of this representation, we provide an integral characterization of orthant orders on the set of quasi-copulas which relates the improved FH bounds to bounds on the expectation of $f(mathbf{S})$. Finally, we apply these results to compute model-free bounds on the prices of multi-asset options that take partial information on the dependence structure into account, such as correlations or market prices of other traded derivatives. The numerical results show that the additional information leads to a significant improvement of the option price bounds compared to the situation where only the marginal distributions are known.
