The important application of semi-static hedging in financial markets naturally leads to the notion of conditionally quasi self-dual processes which is, for continuous semimartingales, related to conditional symmetry properties of both their ordinary as well as their stochastic logarithms. We...

In this paper, we prove a kind of Abelian theorem for a class of stochastic volatility models (X,V) where both the state process X and the volatility process V may have jumps. Our results relate the asymptotic behavior of the characteristic function of XΔ for some Δ0 in a stationary regime to...

The problem of estimating the Lévy density of a partially observed multidimensional affine process from low-frequency and mixed-frequency data is considered. The estimation methodology is based on the log-affine representation of the conditional characteristic function of an affine process and...
