Abstract

Although geometric Brownian motion has a great variety of applications, it can not cover all the random phenomena. The purpose of this article is to propose a model that generalizes geometric Brownian motion. We present some interesting applications of this model in financial engineering and statistical inferences for the unknown parameters.
