Calibration of local‐stochastic volatility models by optimal transport

I Guo, G Loeper, S Wang - Mathematical Finance, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper, we study a semi‐martingale optimal transport problem and its application to
the calibration of local‐stochastic volatility (LSV) models. Rather than considering the …

Robust and accurate construction of the local volatility surface using the Black–Scholes equation

S Kim, J Kim - Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2021 - Elsevier
In this study, we develop a numerical method for the robust and accurate construction of a
local volatility (LV) surface using the generalized Black–Scholes (BS) equation from the …

Improved robust price bounds for multi-asset derivatives under market-implied dependence information

J Ansari, E Lütkebohmert, A Neufeld, J Sester - Finance and Stochastics, 2024 - Springer
We show how inter-asset dependence information derived from market prices of options can
lead to improved model-free price bounds for multi-asset derivatives. Depending on the type …

-Bass martingales

B Tschiderer - arXiv preprint arXiv:2402.05669, 2024 - arxiv.org
An intriguing question in martingale optimal transport is to characterize the martingale with
prescribed initial and terminal marginals whose transition kernel is as Gaussian as possible …

Reconstruction of the local volatility function using the Black–Scholes model

S Kim, H Han, H Jang, D Jeong, C Lee, W Lee… - Journal of Computational …, 2021 - Elsevier
In this paper, we propose a robust and accurate numerical algorithm to reconstruct a local
volatility function using the Black–Scholes (BS) partial differential equation (PDE). Using the …

[PDF][PDF] A probabilistic view of Wasserstein gradient flows and the Benamou–Brenier problem

BT Tschiderer - 2024 - phaidra.univie.ac.at
Various diffusion processes can be interpreted as gradient flows of certain energy
functionals with respect to quadratic Wasserstein metrics. Such processes are well studied …
