We model the dynamics of asset prices and associated derivatives by consideration of the dynamics of the conditional probability density process for the value of an asset at some specified time in the future. In the case where the asset is driven by Brownian motion, an associated "master...

The article describes a global and arbitrage-free parametrization of the eSSVI surfaces introduced by Hendriks and Martini in 2019. A robust calibration of such surfaces has already been proposed by the quantitative research team at Zeliade in 2019, but it is sequential in expiries and lacks of...

We construct a deep learning-based numerical algorithm to solve path-dependent partial differential equations arising in the context of rough volatility. Our approach is based on interpreting the PDE as a solution to an SPDE, building upon recent insights by Bayer, Qiu and Yao, and on...

Accelerated share repurchases (ASRs) are a type of stock buyback wherein the repurchasing firm contracts a financial intermediary to acquire the shares on its behalf. The intermediary purchases the shares from the open market and is compensated by the firm according to the average of the stock...

In this paper, we show that in a model where investors have heterogeneous preferences, the expected return of risky assets depends on the idiosyncratic coskewness beta, which measures the co-movement of the individual stock variance and the market return. We find that there is a negative...

We consider a tractable affine stochastic volatility model that generalizes the seminal Heston (1993) model by augmenting it with jumps in the instantaneous variance process. In this framework, we consider options written on the realized variance, and we examine the impact of the distribution of...

An enhanced option pricing framework that makes use of both continuous and discontinuous time paths based on a geometric Brownian motion and Poisson-driven jump processes respectively is performed in order to better fit with real-observed stock price paths while maintaining the analytical...

We address the inverse problem of local volatility surface calibration from market given option prices. We integrate the ever-increasing ow of option price information into the well-accepted local volatility model of Dupire. This leads to considering both the local volatility surfaces and their...

In this article, we show how to calibrate the widely-used SVI parameterization of the implied volatility smile in such a way as to guarantee the absence of static arbitrage. In particular, we exhibit a large class of arbitrage-free SVI volatility surfaces with a simple closed-form...
