A case study on different one-factor Cheyette models for short maturity caplet calibration

Arun Kumar Polala, Bernhard Hientzsch

In [1], we calibrated a one-factor Cheyette SLV model with a local volatility that is linear in the benchmark forward rate and an uncorrelated CIR stochastic variance to 3M caplets…

Inflation Models with Correlation and Skew

Orcan Ogetbil, Bernhard Hientzsch

We formulate a forward inflation index model with multi-factor volatility structure featuring a parametric form that allows calibration to correlations between indices of different…

Reinforcement Learning and Deep Stochastic Optimal Control for Final Quadratic Hedging

Bernhard Hientzsch

We consider two data driven approaches, Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Deep Trajectory-based Stochastic Optimal Control (DTSOC) for hedging a European call option without and with…

Parametric Differential Machine Learning for Pricing and Calibration

Arun Kumar Polala, Bernhard Hientzsch

Differential machine learning (DML) is a recently proposed technique that uses samplewise state derivatives to regularize least square fits to learn conditional expectations of fun…

A Comparison of Reinforcement Learning and Deep Trajectory Based Stochastic Control Agents for Stepwise Mean-Variance Hedging

Ali Fathi, Bernhard Hientzsch

We consider two data-driven approaches to hedging, Reinforcement Learning and Deep Trajectory-based Stochastic Optimal Control, under a stepwise mean-variance objective. We compare…

A Flexible Commodity Skew Model with Maturity Effects

Orcan Ogetbil, Bernhard Hientzsch

We propose a non-parametric extension with leverage functions to the Andersen commodity curve model. We calibrate this model to market data for WTI and NG including option skew at…

Estimating Future VaR from Value Samples and Applications to Future Initial Margin

Narayan Ganesan, Bernhard Hientzsch

Predicting future values at risk (fVaR) is an important problem in finance. They arise in the modelling of future initial margin requirements for counterparty credit risk and futur…

Calibrating Local Volatility Models with Stochastic Drift and Diffusion

Orcan Ogetbil, Narayan Ganesan, Bernhard Hientzsch

We propose Monte Carlo calibration algorithms for three models: local volatility with stochastic interest rates, stochastic local volatility with deterministic interest rates, and…

Backward Deep BSDE Methods and Applications to Nonlinear Problems

Yajie Yu, Bernhard Hientzsch, Narayan Ganesan

In this paper, we present a backward deep BSDE method applied to Forward Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (FBSDE) with given terminal condition at maturity that time-step…

Pricing Barrier Options with DeepBSDEs

Narayan Ganesan, Yajie Yu, Bernhard Hientzsch

This paper presents a novel and direct approach to price boundary and final-value problems, corresponding to barrier options, using forward deep learning to solve forward-backward…

Extensions of Dupire Formula: Stochastic Interest Rates and Stochastic Local Volatility

Orcan Ogetbil, Bernhard Hientzsch

We derive generalizations of Dupire formula to the cases of general stochastic drift and/or stochastic local volatility. First, we handle a case in which the drift is given as diff…

Introduction to Solving Quant Finance Problems with Time-Stepped FBSDE and Deep Learning

Bernhard Hientzsch

In this introductory paper, we discuss how quantitative finance problems under some common risk factor dynamics for some common instruments and approaches can be formulated as time…
