The Libor Market Model (LMM) describes the evolution of a yield curve through equations for a discrete set of forward rates. In the original version, the rate dynamic was log-normal. The rate dynamic has been extended. The main result presented here is a generic approximation that provides an...

We propose a term structure function, a two-factor variance process and a return process to jointly price SPX and VIX derivatives. The distinctive feature of the variance model is that the factor coefficients are time-varying and they are bonded with the term structure of variance swaps. The...

This paper presents an extensive test of the Libor Market on the Euro Cap and Swaption market. The deterministic LIBOR market model prices OTC cap exactly and prices OTC swaptions with errors well below two basis points. Tests for the hedging performance show that the deterministic LIBOR market...
