Given n equidistant realisations of a Lévy process (Lt; t = 0), a natural estimator for the distribution function N of the Lévy measure is constructed. Under a polynomial decay restriction on the characteristic function, a Donsker-type theorem is proved, that is, a functional central limit...

A new option pricing formula is presented that unifies several results of the existing literature on pricing exotic options under Lèvy processes. To demonstrate the flexibility of the formula a few examples are given which provide new valuation formulas within the Lévy framework
