Gulisashvili et al. [Quant. Finance, 2018, 18(10), 1753-1765] provide a small-time asymptotics for the mass at zero under the uncorrelated stochastic-alpha-beta-rho (SABR) model by approximating the integrated variance with a moment-matched lognormal distribution. We improve the accuracy of the...

Closed-form pricing formulae and option Greeks are obtained for European-type options using an orthogonal polynomial series -- complex Fourier series. We assume that risky assets are driven by exponential Lévy processes and stochastic volatility models. We provide a succinct error analysis to...

The aim of this paper is to investigate model risk aspects of variance swaps and forward start options in a realistic … is accounted for. Then, we consider the model risk of forward-start options and we show how this risk can be reduced by …-start options can be valued by means of analytic methods. We measure model risk using a set of 21 models representing various …

We price derivatives defined for different asset classes with a full stochastic dependence structure. We consider jointly geometric Brownian motions and mean-reversion processes with a a stochastic variance-covariance matrix driven by a Wishart process. These models cannot be treated within the...

Empirical evidence shows that, in equity options markets, the slope of the skew is largely independent of the volatility level. Single-factor stochastic volatility models are not flexible enough to account for the stochastic behavior of the skew. On the other hand, multifactor stochastic...

This paper discusses how to obtain the Black-Scholes equation to evaluate options and how to obtain explicit solutions for Call and Put. The Black-Scholes equation, which is the basis for determining explicit solutions for Call and Put, is a rather sophisticated equation. It is a partial...
