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…

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…

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…

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.
result Calibration results indicate stochastic volatility, low jump frequency, and infinite activity. Short-dated options less sensitive to volatility or Gamma hedges; longer-dated options benefit from multiple-instrument hedges.

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 …
