We study the nonparametric calibration of exponential, self-decomposable Lévy models whose jump density can be characterized by the k-function, which is typically nonsmooth at zero. On the one hand the estimation of the drift, the activity measure a := k(0+) + k(0-) and analog parameters for...

Observing prices of European put and call options, we calibrate exponential Lévy models nonparametrically. We discuss the implementation of the spectral estimation procedures for Lévy models of finite jump activity as well as for self-decomposable Lévy models and improve these methods....

We estimate linear functionals in the classical deconvolution problem by kernel estimators. We obtain a uniform central limit theorem with square root n rate on the assumption that the smoothness of the functionals is larger than the ill-posedness of the problem, which is given by the polynomial...
