Comment on: A Note on the Discontinuity Problem in Heston's Stochastic Volatility Model

Lord, Roger - In: Applied Mathematical Finance 17 (2010) 4, pp. 373-376

Guo and Hung (2007) recently studied the complex logarithm present in the characteristic function of Heston …'s stochastic volatility model. They proposed an algorithm for the evaluation of the characteristic function that is claimed to …

empirical characteristic function. Unlike the tests based on the cross-correlation function (e.g. Haugh, 1976; Hong, 1996; Koch …-correlation. By differentiating the empirical characteristic function at the origin, the present approach yields a modified version of … differentiating the empirical characteristic function properly. A simulation study compares the new test with those of Haugh (1976 …

Risk and Return Measures for a Non-Gaussian World

Powers, Michael R.; Powers, Thomas Y. - In: Journal of Financial Transformation 25 (2009), pp. 51-54

We propose new measures of both risk and anticipated return that incorporate the effects of skewness and heavy tails from a financial return’s probability distribution. Our cosine-based analysis, which involves maximizing the marginal Shannon information associated with the Fourier transform...
