Deterministic implied volatility models
Abstract In this paper, we characterize two deterministic implied volatility models, defined by assuming that either the per-delta or the per-strike implied volatility surface has a deterministic evolution. Practitioners have recently proposed these two models to describe two regimes of implied volatility (see Derman (1999 Risk 4 55–9)). In an arbitrage-free sticky-delta model, we show that the...
متن کاملNormalization for Implied Volatility
We study specific nonlinear transformations of the Black-Scholes implied volatility to show remarkable properties of the volatility surface. Model-free bounds on the implied volatility skew are given. Pricing formulas for the European options which are written in terms of the implied volatility are given. In particular, we prove elegant formulas for the fair strikes of the variance swap and the...
متن کاملStochastic Models of Implied Volatility Surfaces
We propose a market-based approach to the modelling of implied volatility, in which the implied volatility surface is directly used as the state variable to describe the joint evolution of market prices of options and their underlying asset. We model the evolution of an implied volatility surface by representing it as a randomly fluctuating surface driven by a finite number of orthogonal random...
متن کاملRobust Numerical Calibration for Implied Volatility Expansion Models
Implied volatility expansions allow calibration of sophisticated volatility models. They provide an accurate fit and parametrization of implied volatility surfaces that is consistent with empirical observations. Fine-grained higher order expansions offer a better fit but pose the challenge of finding a robust, stable and computationally tractable calibration procedure due to a large number of m...
متن کاملThe Small-maturity Implied Volatility Slope for Lévy Models
We consider the at-the-money strike derivative of implied volatility as the maturity tends to zero. Our main results quantify the growth of the slope for infinite activity exponential Lévy models. As auxiliary results, we obtain the limiting values of short maturity digital call options, using Mellin transform asymptotics. Finally, we discuss when the at-the-money slope is consistent with the s...
