Abstract

We study the superhedging problem for American options with completely irregular payoffs in a non-linear and incomplete market model with default. We give a dual representation of the seller’s (superhedging) price in terms of the value of a non-linear mixed control/stopping problem, involving a suitable set of equivalent probability measures. We characterize the seller’s price process as the minimal supersolution of two types of reflected BSDEs: a constrained one and an optional one. Under some regularity assumptions on the pay-off, we show a duality result for the buyer’s price in terms of the value of a non-linear control/stopping game problem.
