A positive spot rate model driven by a gamma process and correlated to equity is introduced and calibrated via closed forms for the joint characteristic function for the rate r, its integral y and the logarithm of the stock price s under the T-forward measure. The law of the triple (r,y,s) is...

In equity and foreign exchange markets the risk-neutral dynamics of the underlying asset are commonly represented by stochastic volatility models with jumps. In this paper we consider a dense subclass of such models and develop analytically tractable formulae for the prices of a range of...

We show that there are two distinct ways to make volatility stochastic that are differentiated by their consequences for skewness. Most models in the literature have adopted the relatively tractable methodology of using stochastic time changes to engineer stochastic volatility. Unfortunately,...
