In this paper the performance of locally risk-minimizing delta hedge strategies for European options in stochastic volatility models is studied from an experimental as well as from an empirical perspective. These hedge strategies are derived for a large class of diffusion-type stochastic...

The Malliavin derivative operator is classically defined with respect to the standard Brownian motion on the Wiener space C0[0,T]. We define the Malliavin derivative with respect to arbitrary Brownian motions on general probability spaces and compute how the Malliavin derivative of a functional...

We use Malliavin calculus and the Clark–Ocone formula to derive the hedging strategy of an arithmetic Asian Call option in general terms. Furthermore we derive an expression for the density of the integral over time of a geometric Brownian motion, which allows us to express hedging strategy...
