Affine jump-diffusions constitute a large class of continuous-time stochastic models that are particularly popular in finance and economics due to their analytical tractability. Methods for parameter estimation for such processes require ergodicity in order establish consistency and asymptotic normality of the associat…

We develop a comprehensive mathematical framework for polynomial jump-diffusions in a semimartingale context, which nest affine jump-diffusions and have broad applications in finance.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behaviors of implied volatility of an affine jump-diffusion model.

We introduce closed-form transition density expansions for multivariate affine jump-diffusion processes.

We establish parametric conditions which guarantee existen…

In this article we consider affine generalizations of the Merton jump diffusion model [Merton, J. Fin. Econ., 1976] and the respective pricing of European options. On the one hand, the Brownian motion part in the Merton model may be generalized to a log-Heston model, and on the other hand, the jump part may be generali…

We investigate the existence of affine realizations for term structure models driven by Lévy processes. It turns out that we obtain more severe restrictions on the volatility than in the classical diffusion case without jumps. As special cases, we study constant direction volatilities and the existence of short rate re…

We put forward a complete theory on moment explosion for fairly general state-spaces. This includes a characterization of the validity of the affine transform formula in terms of minimal solutions of a system of generalized Riccati differential equations. Also, we characterize the class of positive semidefinite process…

Study the hedging of cryptocurrency options in a volatile market.

problem Hedging options in a volatile, non-stationary cryptocurrency market.
method Calibrated to SVI-implied volatility surfaces, Monte Carlo price paths generated using SVCJ, GARCH, and historical data. Delta, Delta-Gamma, Delta-Vega, and Minimum Variance strategies applied. Wide range of market models tested.

We investigate which jump-diffusion models are convexity preserving. The study of convexity preserving models is motivated by monotonicity results for such models in the volatility and in the jump parameters. We give a necessary condition for convexity to be preserved in several-dimensional jump-diffusion models. This …

ATSM are widely applied for pricing of bonds and interest rate derivatives but the consistency of ATSM when the short rate, r, is unbounded from below remains essentially an open question. First, the standard approach to ATSM uses the Feynman-Kac theorem which is easily applicable only when r is bounded from below. Sec…
