Abstract

We apply Geometric Arbitrage Theory to obtain results in Mathematical Finance, which do not need stochastic differential geometry in their formulation. First, for generic market dynamics given by a subclass of multidimensional Itô processes we specify and prove the equivalence between No-Free-Lunch-with-Vanishing-Risk (NFLVR) and expected utility maximization. As a by-product, we provide a geometric characterization of the No-Unbounded-Profit-with-Bounded-Risk (NUPBR) condition given by the zero curvature (ZC) condition for this subclass of Itô processes. Finally, we extend the Black–Scholes partial differential equation to markets allowing arbitrage.
