We study the term structure of the implied volatility in a situation where the smile is symmetric. Starting from the … distributions, we derive representation formulae for the at-the-money (ATM) implied volatility level and curvature in a general … price. To deal with the remaining part of the volatility surface, we build a time dependent SVI-type approximation which …

This is a short comment on Kung and Lee's paper. In this note, we show that the formulae given in Kung and Lee (2009) for European call and put option under Merton's model of the short rate are incorrect. We give the correct derivations making use of the "change of numeraire" technique which is...

We consider an extension of the Hull-White short rate model which incorporates smile and skew, effectively through a quadratic dependence of the diffusion on the short rate. We derive an asymptotic representation of the pricing kernel for this new model in semi-analytic form, using this to...

This paper presents an Equity-IR hybrid model that fits in the class of affine diffusion processes. In the absence of cash dividend payment, the moment generating function can be easily and rapidly computed. This allows for an efficient calibration of the model based on Vanilla European Options...
