We have presented a new unified approach to model the dynamics of both the sum and difference of two correlated lognormal stochastic variables. By the Lie-Trotter operator splitting method, both the sum and difference are shown to follow a shifted lognormal stochastic process, and approximate probability distributions are determined in closed form. Illustrative numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the validity and accuracy of these approximate distributions. In terms of the approximate probability distributions, we have also obtained an analytical series expansion of the exact solutions, which can allow us to improve the approximation in a systematic manner. Moreover, we believe that this new approach can be extended to study both (1) the algebraic sum ofNlognormals, and (2) the sum and difference of other correlated stochastic processes, for example, two correlated CEV processes, two correlated CIR processes, and two correlated lognormal processes with mean-reversion.

Operator Splitting Method

AbstractThis paper describes the conic operator splitting method (COSMO) solver, an operator splitting algorithm and associated software package for convex optimisation problems with quadratic objective function and conic constraints. At each step, the algorithm alternates between solving a quasi-definite linear system with a constant coefficient matrix and a projection onto convex sets. The low per-iteration computational cost makes the method particularly efficient for large problems, e.g. semidefinite programs that arise in portfolio optimisation, graph theory, and robust control. Moreover, the solver uses chordal decomposition techniques and a new clique merging algorithm to effectively exploit sparsity in large, structured semidefinite programs. Numerical comparisons with other state-of-the-art solvers for a variety of benchmark problems show the effectiveness of our approach. Our Julia implementation is open source, designed to be extended and customised by the user, and is integrated into the Julia optimisation ecosystem.
