Suppose an investor aims at Delta hedging a European contingent claim h(S(T))h(S(T)) in a jump-diffusion model, but incorrectly specifies the stock price's volatility and jump sensitivity, so that any hedging strategy is calculated under a misspecified model. When does the erroneously computed strategy super-replicate the t…
