Near-Maturity Asymptotics of Critical Prices of American Put Options under Exponential Lévy Models

José E. Figueroa-López, Ruoting Gong

In the present paper, we study the near-maturity () convergence rate of the optimal early-exercise price of an American put under an exponential Lévy mod…

Debiased Kernel Estimation of Spot Volatility in the Presence of Infinite Variation Jumps

B. Cooper Boniece, José E. Figueroa-López, Tianwei Zhou

Volatility estimation is a central problem in financial econometrics, but becomes particularly challenging when jump activity is high, a phenomenon observed empirically in highly t…

Estimation of Integrated Volatility Functionals with Kernel Spot Volatility Estimators

José E. Figueroa-López, Jincheng Pang, Bei Wu

For a multidimensional Itô semimartingale, we consider the problem of estimating integrated volatility functionals. Jacod and Rosenbaum (2013) studied a plug-in type of estimator b…

Adaptive Optimal Market Making Strategies with Inventory Liquidation Cos

Jonathan Chávez-Casillas, José E. Figueroa-López, Chuyi Yu +1

A novel high-frequency market-making approach in discrete time is proposed that admits closed-form solutions. By taking advantage of demand functions that are linear in the quoted…

Data-driven fixed-point tuning for truncated realized variations

B. Cooper Boniece, José E. Figueroa-López, Yuchen Han

Many methods for estimating integrated volatility and related functionals of semimartingales in the presence of jumps require specification of tuning parameters for their use in pr…

High-order short-time expansions for ATM option prices of exponential Lévy models

José E. Figueroa-López, Ruoting Gong, Christian Houdré

In the present work, a novel second-order approximation for ATM option prices is derived for a large class of exponential Lévy models with or without Brownian component. The result…
