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 decay rate of the characteristic function of the error. The limit distribution is a...

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 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...

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the characteristics of an infinitely divisible distribution under which its characteristic function φ decays polynomially. Under a mild regularity condition this polynomial decay is equivalent to 1/φ being a Fourier multiplier on Besov spaces.

Observing prices of European put and call options, we calibrate exponential L\'evy models nonparametrically. We discuss the efficient implementation of the spectral estimation procedures for L\'evy models of finite jump activity as well as for self-decomposable L\'evy models. Based on finite...

We propose the systemic risk beta as a measure for financial companies’ contribution to systemic risk given network interdependence between firms’ tail risk exposures. Conditional on statistically pre-identified network spillover effects and market and balance sheet information, we define...

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...
