This paper presents new approximation formulae of European options in a local volatility model with stochastic interest rates. This is a companion paper to our work on perturbation methods for local volatility models http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1275872 for the case of...

Using Malliavin calculus techniques, we derive an analytical formula for the price of European options, for any model including local volatility and Poisson jump process. We show that the accuracy of the formula depends on the smoothness of the payoff function. Our approach relies on an...

For general time-dependent local volatility models, we propose new ap- proximation formulas for the price of call options. This extends previous results of [BGM10b] where stochastic expansions combined with Malliavin calculus were performed to obtain approximation formulas based on the local...

The use of the Heston model is still challenging because it has a closed formula only when the parameters are constant [Hes93] or piecewise constant [MN03]. Hence, using a small volatility of volatility expansion and Malliavin calculus techniques, we derive an accurate analytical formula for the...
