Optimal Iterative Threshold-Kernel Estimation of Jump Diffusion Processes

José E. Figueroa-López, Cheng Li, Jeffrey Nisen

In this paper, we propose a new threshold-kernel jump-detection method for jump-diffusion processes, which iteratively applies thresholding and kernel methods in an approximately o…

Estimation of a noisy subordinated Brownian Motion via two-scales power variations

Jose E. Figueroa-Lopez, K. Lee

High frequency based estimation methods for a semiparametric pure-jump subordinated Brownian motion exposed to a small additive microstructure noise are developed building on the t…

Short-Time Expansions for Call Options on Leveraged ETFs Under Exponential Lévy models With Local Volatility

José E. Figueroa-López, Ruoting Gong, Matthew Lorig

In this article, we consider the small-time asymptotics of options on a \emph{Leveraged Exchange-Traded Fund} (LETF) when the underlying Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) exhibits both lo…

Short-time asymptotics for the implied volatility skew under a stochastic volatility model with Lévy jumps

José E. Figueroa-López, Sveinn Ólafsson

The implied volatility skew has received relatively little attention in the literature on short-term asymptotics for financial models with jumps, despite its importance in model se…

Short-time expansions for close-to-the-money options under a Lévy jump model with stochastic volatility

José E. Figueroa-López, Sveinn Ólafsson

In Figueroa-López et al. (2013), a second order approximation for at-the-money (ATM) option prices is derived for a large class of exponential Lévy models, with or without a Browni…

The small-maturity smile for exponential Levy models

Jose E. Figueroa-Lopez, Martin Forde

We derive a small-time expansion for out-of-the-money call options under an exponential Levy model, using the small-time expansion for the distribution function given in Figueroa-L…
