Study on gamma-related OU processes with simulation methods.
Estimates boundaries for acceptable bilateral gamma risk in financial markets.
Modeling stock returns and volatility using a bivariate gamma generalized Laplace law.
The study explains how market-makers' hedging affects stock volatility during gamma-squeeze events.
Using available data from the New York stock market (NYSM) we test four different bi-parametric models to fit the correspondent volume-price distributions at each -minute lag: the Gamma distribution, the inverse Gamma distribution, the Weibull distribution and the log-normal distribution. The volume-price data, whi…
The paper uses the variance-gamma model to price options and explain excess kurtosis.
The so-called Pareto-Levy or power-law distribution has been successfully used as a model to describe probabilities associated to extreme variations of worldwide stock markets indexes data and it has the form from empirical d…
We offer new formulas for European option pricing under tempered stable processes.
We present evidence that the best model for empirical volume-price distributions is not always the same and it strongly depends in (i) the region of the volume-price spectrum that one wants to model and (ii) the period in time that is being modelled. To show these two features we analyze stocks of the New York stock ma…
The distribution of trade sizes and trading volumes are investigated based on the limit order book data of 22 liquid Chinese stocks listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in the whole year 2003. We observe that the size distribution of trades for individual stocks exhibits jumps, which is caused by the number preference…
Study of gamma-hedging using rough paths for European and exotic options.
Stock prices are known to exhibit non-Gaussian dynamics, and there is much interest in understanding the origin of this behavior. Here, we present a model that explains the shape and scaling of the distribution of intraday stock price fluctuations (called intraday returns) and verify the model using a large database fo…
We prove that Student's t-distribution provides one of the better fits to returns of S&P component stocks and the generalized inverse gamma distribution best fits VIX and VXO volatility data. We further argue that a more accurate measure of the volatility may be possible based on the fact that stock returns can be unde…
Unified model for network risks, including bilateral and central clearing, with practical applications.
Paper predicts international trade flows using machine learning and factorization models.
LLMs detect market patterns through causal reasoning, not just temporal association.
Bayesian analysis of financial time series using R-INLA.
Method solves optimisation problems on non-Riemannian surfaces with bilateral curvature bounds.
Study models opaque financial markets using multi-agent simulation.
Bielecki and Rutkowski (2014) introduced and studied a generic nonlinear market model, which includes several risky assets, multiple funding accounts and margin accounts. In this paper, we examine the pricing and hedging of contract both from the perspective of the hedger and the counterparty with arbitrary initial end…
Although initially originated as a totally empirical relationship to explain the volume of trade between two partners, gravity equation has been the focus of several theoretic models that try to explain it. Specialization models are of great importance in providing a solid theoretic ground for gravity equation in bilat…
We show how the cost of funding the collateral in a particular set up can be equal to the Bilateral Valuation Adjustment with the "funded" probability of default, leading to the definition of a Funded Bilateral Valuation Adjustment (FBVA). That set up can also be viewed by an investor as an effective way to restructure…

In this paper, we examine the pricing and hedging of contract both from the perspective of the hedger and the counterparty with arbitrary initial end…
In this short note we show that the existence of bilaterally symmetric extremal Kähler metrics on .
Study minimax regret in bilateral trade with heavy-tailed valuations.
TradeMech nets trades without changing counterparty relationships.
Our previous results are extended to the case of the margin account, which may depend on the contract's value for the hedger and/or the counterparty. The present work generalizes also the papers by Bergman (1995), Mercurio (2013) and Piterbarg (2010). Using the comparison theorems for BSDEs, we derive inequalities for …
We analyze the counterparty risk embedded in CDS contracts, in presence of a bilateral margin agreement. First, we investigate the pricing of collateralized counterparty risk and we derive the bilateral Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA), unilateral Credit Valuation Adjustment (UCVA) and Debt Valuation Adjustment (DVA).…
Efficiently calculates Brazilian stock options with discrete dividends.
Thompson Sampling with bilateral uncertainty improves performance in Bayesian Optimization.
We analyze the practical consequences of the bilateral counterparty risk adjustment. We point out that past literature assumes that, at the moment of the first default, a risk-free closeout amount will be used. We argue that the legal (ISDA) documentation suggests in many points that a substitution closeout should be u…
A three-dimensional extension of the structural default model with firms' values driven by correlated diffusion processes is presented. Green's function based semi-analytical methods for solving the forward calibration problem and backward pricing problem are developed. These methods are used to analyze bilateral count…
TraderTalk uses LLMs to simulate human trading interactions in financial markets.
New formula for efficient spread option pricing in copula markets.
Develops Bayesian inference methods for gamma models.
Mixture models with Gamma and or inverse-Gamma distributed mixture components are useful for medical image tissue segmentation or as post-hoc models for regression coefficients obtained from linear regression within a Generalised Linear Modeling framework (GLM), used in this case to separate stochastic (Gaussian) noise…
The paper analyzes regret in bilateral trade mechanisms without prior valuations.
We compare two different bilateral counterparty valuation adjustment (BVA) formulas. The first formula is an approximation and is based on subtracting the two unilateral Credit Valuation Adjustment (CVA)'s formulas as seen from the two different parties in the transaction. This formula is only a simplified representati…
New formulas derived for variance gamma model option pricing.
Analyzes valuation of derivative claims with asymmetric funding costs and WWR.
We depart from the usual methods for pricing contracts with the counterparty credit risk found in most of the existing literature. In effect, typically, these models do not account for either systemic effects or at-first-default contagion and postulate that the contract value at default equals either the risk-free valu…
The article prices exchange options using variance gamma-like models.
Stock market comovements are examined using cointegration, Granger causality tests and nonlinear approaches in context of mutual information and correlations. Underlying data sets are affected by non-stationarities and trends, we also apply AMF-DFA and AMF-DXA. We find only 170 pair of Stock markets cointegrated, and a…
Study shows variance gamma model outperforms Black-Scholes for USD-INR currency options.
We introduce the general arbitrage-free valuation framework for counterparty risk adjustments in presence of bilateral default risk, including default of the investor. We illustrate the symmetry in the valuation and show that the adjustment involves a long position in a put option plus a short position in a call option…
We use the theory of normal variance-mean mixtures to derive a data augmentation scheme for models that include gamma functions. Our methodology applies to many situations in statistics and machine learning, including Multinomial-Dirichlet distributions, Negative binomial regression, Poisson-Gamma hierarchical models, …
