Abstract

We introduce a topological perspective on market dynamics and prove obstruction results: under specific global state-space constraints, no arbitrage-free dynamics satisfying given regularity and observability axioms can exist. The framework links homological invariants to pricing-flow consistency and identifies when local model validity cannot be extended globally.
