Popis: | We construct the Black-Scholes pricing framework using a non unitary central extension of the Galilei group that implements the numeraire invariance of the financial theory. Formally, Black-Scholes can be mapped to the case in which a free quantum particle acquires an imaginary mass inversely proportional to the Black-Scholes variance. The natural integral transform associated to the Black Scholes group is the non unitary bi-lateral Laplace transform. |
