Exponential Stock Models Driven by Tempered Stable Processes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate exponential stock models driven by tempered stable processes, which constitute a rich family of purely discontinuous Lévy processes. With a view of option pricing, we provide a systematic analysis of the existence of equivalent martingale measures, under which the model remains analytically tractable. This includes the existence of Esscher martingale measures and martingale measures having minimal distance to the physical probability measure. Moreover, we provide pricing formulae for European call options and perform a case study.

Tempered Stable Distributions and Processes
We investigate the class of tempered stable distributions and their associated processes. Our analysis of tempered stable distributions includes limit distributions, parameter estimation and the study of their densities. Regarding tempered stable processes, we deal with density transformations and compute their p-variation indices. Exponential stock models driven by tempered stable processes ar...
متن کاملFinancial Market Models with Lévy Processes and Time-Varying Volatility
Asset management and pricing models require the proper modeling of the return distribution of financial assets. While the return distribution used in the traditional theories of asset pricing and portfolio selection is the normal distribution, numerous studies that have investigated the empirical behavior of asset returns in financial markets throughout the world reject the hypothesis that asse...
متن کاملDiffusion and relaxation controlled by tempered -stable processes
We derive general properties of anomalous diffusion and nonexponential relaxation from the theory of tempered -stable processes. The tempering results in the existence of all moments of operational time. The subordination by the inverse tempered -stable process provides diffusion relaxation that occupies an intermediate place between subdiffusion Cole-Cole law and normal diffusion exponential l...
متن کاملTempered Fractional Stable Motion
Tempered fractional stable motion adds an exponential tempering to the power-law kernel in a linear fractional stable motion, or a shift to the power-law filter in a harmonizable fractional stable motion. Increments from a stationary time series that can exhibit semi-long-range dependence. This paper develops the basic theory of tempered fractional stable processes, including dependence structu...
متن کاملTempered stable distributions and processes in finance: numerical analysis
Most of the important models in finance rest on the assumption that randomness is explained through a normal random variable. However there is ample empirical evidence against the normality assumption, since stock returns are heavy-tailed, leptokurtic and skewed. Partly in response to those empirical inconsistencies relative to the properties of the normal distribution, a suitable alternative d...
