We propose a fully data-driven approach to calibrate local stochastic volatility (LSV) models, circumventing in … particular the ad hoc interpolation of the volatility surface. To achieve this, we parametrize the leverage function by a family … be seen in the context of neural SDEs and (causal) generative adversarial networks: we generate volatility surfaces by …

We investigate the state dependence of the variance of the instantaneous variance of the S&P 500 index empirically. Time-series analysis of realized variance over a 20-year period shows strong evidence of an elasticity of variance of the variance parameter close to that of a log-normal model,...

This paper studies the effect of variance swap in hedging volatility risk under the mean-variance criterion. We … consider two mean-variance portfolio selection problems under Heston's stochastic volatility model. In the first problem, the … variance swap can be used to hedge against the volatility risk. In the second problem, only the bank account and the stock can …

We model the logarithm of the spot price of electricity with a normal inverse Gaussian (NIG) process and the wind speed and wind power production with two Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes. In order to reproduce the correlation between the spot price and the wind power production, namely between a...
