Asset returns are modeled by locally bilateral gamma processes with zero covariations. Covariances are then observed to be consequences of randomness in variations. Support vector machine regressions on prices are employed to model the implied randomness. The contributions of support vector machine regressions are evaluated using reductions in the economic cost of exposure to prediction residuals. Both local and global mean reversion and momentum are represented by drift dependence on price levels. Optimal portfolios maximize conservative portfolio values calculated as distorted expectations of portfolio returns observed on simulated path spaces. They are also shown to outperform classical alternatives.

We study the existence and uniqueness of a solution to path-dependent backward stochastic Volterra integral equations (BSVIEs) with jumps, where path-dependence means the dependence of the free term and generator of a path of a càdlàg process. Furthermore, we prove path-differentiability of such a solution and establish the duality principle between a linear path-dependent forward stochastic Volterra integral equation (FSVIE) with jumps and a linear path-dependent BSVIE with jumps. As a result of the duality principle we get a comparison theorem and derive a class of dynamic coherent risk measures based on path-dependent BSVIEs with jumps.

We show that the comparison results for a backward SDE with jumps established in Royer (Stoch. Process. Appl 116: 1358-1376, 2006) and Yin and Mao (J. Math. Anal. Appl 346: 345-358, 2008) hold under more simplified conditions. Moreover, we prove existence and uniqueness allowing the coefficients in the linear growth- and monotonicity-condition for the generator to be random and time-dependent. In the L2-case with linear growth, this also generalizes the results of Kruse and Popier (Stochastics 88: 491-539, 2016). For the proof of the comparison result, we introduce an approximation technique: Given a BSDE driven by Brownian motion and Poisson random measure, we approximate it by BSDEs where the Poisson random measure admits only jumps of size larger than 1/n.
