Tóm tắt

We study the concept of financial bubbles in a market model endowed with a set ${\mathcal {P}}$ of probability measures, typically mutually singular to each other. In this setting, we investigate a dynamic version of robust superreplication, which we use to introduce the notions of bubble and robust fundamental value in a way consistent with the existing literature in the classical case ${\mathcal {P}}=\{{\mathbb {P}}\}$ . Finally, we provide concrete examples illustrating our results.
