摘要
In this paper, we study the Novikov-Shiryaev optimal stopping problem for Levy processes. In particular, we are interested in finding the representing measure of the value function. It is seen that this can be expressed in terms of the Appell polynomials. For spectrally one-sided Levy processes, the results are appealing and explicit. An important tool in our approach and computations is the Wiener-Hopf factorization.
