Abstract

In this paper, we consider a special nonlinear expectation problem on the special parameter space and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the solution. Meanwhile, we generalize the necessary and sufficient condition to the two-dimensional moment problem. Moreover, we use the maximum entropy method to carry out a kind of concrete solution and analyze the convergence for the maximum entropy solution. Numerical experiments are presented to compute the maximum entropy density functions.

Highlights

  • The sublinear expectation Ê introduced by Peng [1,2] can be regarded as the supremum of a family of linear expectations { Eθ : θ ∈ Θ}, that is, Ê[ φ( X )] = sup Eθ [ φ( X )], (1)θ∈Θ where φ( x ) is a local Lipschitz continuous function and Θ is the parameter space.It is evident that the sublinear expectation defined by (1) depends on the choice of parameter space Θ.Different spaces will result in different nonlinear expectations

  • When N = 1, Peng [3] gave the definition of the independent and identically distributed random variable and proved the weak law of large numbers (LLN) under the sublinear expectation and Condition (2)

  • The new LLN and central limit theorem (CLT) are the theoretical foundations in the framework of sublinear expectation
