This volume contains 11 chapters It is an expanded version of the paperspresented at the first Kansas–Missouri Winter School of Applied Probabil-ity, which was organized by Allanus Tsoi and was held at the University ofMissouri, February 14 and 15, 2008 It brought together researchers fromdifferent parts of the country to review and to update the recent advances,and to identify future directions in the areas of applied probability, stochas-tic processes, and their applications
After the successful conference was over, there was a strong support
of publishing the papers delivered in the conference as an archival volume.Based on the support, we began the preparation on this project In addition
to papers reported at the conference, we have invited a number of colleagues
to contribute additional papers
As an archive, this volume presents some of the highlights of the ference, as well as some of most recent developments in stochastic systemsand applications This book is naturally divided into two parts The firstpart contains some recent results in stochastic analysis, stochastic processesand related fields It explores the Itˆo formula for multidimensional Gaussianprocesses using the Wick integral, introduces the notion of fractional whitenoise multiplication, and discusses the LaSalle type of invariance principlesfor hybrid switching diffusions The second part of the book is devoted to fi-nancial mathematics, insurance models, and applications Included here areoptimal investment policies for irreversible capital investment projects un-der uncertainty in monopoly and Stackelberg leader-follower environments,

An Itˆ o formula for multidimensional Gaussian processes using the Wick gral is obtained The conditions allow us to consider processes with infinite quadratic variation As an example we consider a correlated heterogenous frac- tional Brownian motion We also use this Itˆ o formula to compute the price of
inte-an exchinte-ange option in a Wick-fractional Black-Scholes model.
Keywords : Wick-Itˆ o formula; Gaussian processes; Malliavin calculus.
1 Introduction
The classical stochastic calculus and Itˆo’s formula can be extended to martingales There has been a recent interest in developing a stochasticcalculus for Gaussian processes which are not semimartingales such as thefractional Brownian motion (fBm for short) These developments are mo-tivated by the fact that fBm and other related processes are suitable inputnoises in practical problems arising in a variety of fields including finance,telecommunications and hydrology (see, for instance, Mandelbrot and VanNess7 and Sottinen13)
semi-A possible definition of the stochastic integral with respect to the fBm
is based on the divergence operator appearing in the stochastic calculus
of variations This approach to define stochastic integrals started from thework by Decreusefond and ¨Ust¨unel3and was further developed by Carmona
Trang 124 D Nualart and S Ortiz-Latorre
and Coutin2 and Duncan, Hu and Pasik-Duncan4 (see also Hu5 and alart9 for a general survey papers on the stochastic calculus for the fBm).The divergence integral can be approximated by Riemman sums definedusing the Wick product, and it has the important property of having zeroexpectation
Nu-Nualart and Taqqu11,12 have proved a Wick-Itˆo formula for generalGaussian processes In 11 they have considered Gaussian processes withfinite quadratic variation, which includes the fBm with Hurst parameter
H > 1/2 The paper 12 deals with the change-of-variable formula for sian processes with infinite quadratic variation, in particular the fBm withHurst parameterH ∈ (1/4, 1/2) The lower bound for H is a natural one,see Al`os, Mazet and Nualart.1
Gaus-The aim of this paper is to generalize the results of Nualart and Taqqu12
to the multidimensional case We introduce the multidimensional Wick-Itˆointegral as a limit of forward Riemann sums and prove a Wick-Itˆo formulaunder conditions similar to those in Nualart and Taqqu,12allowing infinitequadratic variation processes
The paper is organized as follows In Section 2, we introduce the ditions that the multidimensional Gaussian process must satify and statethe Itˆo formula Section 3 contains some definitions in order to introducethe Wick integral In Section 4 we prove some technical lemmas using ex-tensively the integration by parts formula for the derivative operator Theconvergence results used in the proof of the main theorem are proved inSection 5 Section 6 is devoted to study two examples related to the multi-dimensional fBm with parameterH > 1/4 Finally, in section 7 we use ourItˆo formula to compute the price of an exchange option on a Wick-fractionalBlack-Scholes market

LetX = {Xt, t ∈ [0, T ]} be a d-dimensional centered Gaussian process withcontinuous covariance function matrixR(s, t), that is,
Ri,j(s, t) = E[XsiXtj],fori, j = 1, , d For s = t, we have the covariance matrix Vt=R(t, t)
We denote by H be the space obtained as the completion of the set ofstep functions inA = [0, T ] × {1, , d} with respect the scalar product

where
The mapping 1i[0,t]7→ Xtican be extended to a linear isometry between thespace H and the Gaussian Hilbert space generated by the process X Wedenote by letI1:h 7→ X (h) , h ∈ H this isometry
Let H⊗mdenote themth tensor power of H, equipped with the followingscalar product
Now consider the set of smooth random variables S A random variable
F ∈ S has the form
F = f (X (h1), , X (hn)), (1)withh1, , hn∈ H, n ≥ 1, and f ∈ Cb∞(Rn) (f and all its partial deriva-tives are bounded) In S one can define the derivative operator D as
(Ω; H) By iteration one obtains
Definition 2.1 For m ≥ 1, the space Dm,2
is the completion of S withrespect to the norm kF km,2 defined by

The Wick product F X (h) between a random variable F ∈ D1,2 andthe Gaussian random variableX (h) is defined as follows
Definition 2.2 LetF ∈ D1,2andh ∈ H Then the Wick product F X (h)
is defined by
F X (h) = F X (h) − hDF, hiH.Actually, the Wick product coincides with the divergence (or the Sko-rohod integral) ofF h, and by the properties of the divergence operator wecan write
E[F X (h)] = E [hDF, hiH] (2)The Wick integral of a stochastic processu with respect to X is defined
as the limit of Riemann sums constructed using the Wick product For this
we need some notation Denote by D the set of all partitions of [0, T ]
π = {0 = t0< t1< · · · < tn =T }such that

where ∆iXj=Xtji+1− Xtji, and π runs over all partitions of [0, T ]
in the class D
Our purpose is to derive a change-of-variable formula for the process
f (Xt), wheref : Rd→ R if a function satisfying the following condition.(A4) For every multi-indexα = (α1, , αd) ∈ Nd with |α| := α1+ · · · +

Besides the multi-index notation for the derivatives, we will also use thefollowing notation for iterated derivatives Letf (x1, , xd) be a sufficientlysmooth function, then
The next theorem is the main result of the paper
Theorem 3.1 Suppose that the Gaussian process X and the function fsatisfy the preceding assumptions (A1) to (A4) Then the forward integrals(see Definition 2.3)

Remark 3.1 We can also consider a function f (t, x) depending on timesuch that the partial derivative ∂f∂t(t, x) exists and is continuous In thiscase we obtain the additional termRt

E[F X (h) X (g)] = E[ 2F, h g

E[F ξ1ξ2] = E[ 2(F ξ1), h2 g2H⊗2]
