In this paper we employ a one-factor Lévy model to determine basket option prices. More precisely, basket option prices are determined by replacing the distribution of the real basket with an appropriate approximation. For the approximate basket we determine the underlying characteristic...

In this paper we consider the problem of deriving correlation estimates from observed option data. An implied correlation estimate arises when we match the observed index option price with a corresponding model price. The underlying model assumes that stock prices can be described using a...
