SOME PRICING TOOLS FOR THE VARIANCE GAMMA MODEL [PDF]
We establish several closed pricing formulas for various path-independent payoffs, under an exponential Lévy model driven by the Variance Gamma process. These formulas take the form of quickly convergent series and are obtained via tools from Mellin transform theory as well as from multidimensional complex analysis.

Option Pricing in a Dynamic Variance-Gamma Model [PDF]
We present a discrete time stochastic volatility model in which the conditional distribution of the logreturns is a Variance-Gamma, that is a normal variance-mean mixture with Gamma mixing density. We assume that the Gamma mixing density is time varying and follows an affine Garch model, trying to capture persistence of volatility shocks and also ...

Pricing Embedded Options Using Fast Fourier Transform to Compare Variance Gamma and Black-Scholes-Merton Model Efficiency [PDF]
Embedded options are virtually new instruments identical to options in many aspects except their non-tradable nature. Testing the efficiency of the Variance Gamma and Black-Scholes-Merton model on these instruments would provide a vision of transitioning

Time-varying parameter (TVP) models are very flexible in capturing gradual changes in the effect of explanatory variables on the outcome variable.

Étude théorique de la compression de spin nucléaire par mesure quantique non destructive en continu
We propose to take advantage of the very weak coupling of the ground-state helium-3 nuclear spin to its environment to produce very long-lived macroscopic quantum states, here nuclear spin squeezed states, in a gas cell at room temperature.

Calibration for Weak Variance-Alpha-Gamma Processes [PDF]
The weak variance-alpha-gamma process is a multivariate Lévy process constructed by weakly subordinating Brownian motion, possibly with correlated components with an alpha-gamma subordinator. It generalises the variance-alpha-gamma process of Semeraro constructed by traditional subordination.

Stationary-increment Student and variance-gamma processes [PDF]
A continuous-time model with stationary increments for asset price {P t } is an extension of the symmetric subordinator model of Heyde (1999), and allows for skewness of returns. In the setting of independent variance-gamma-distributed returns the model resembles closely that of Madan, Carr, and Chang ...

Valuation of reverse convertibles in the variance gamma economy [PDF]
Prior research on structured products has demonstrated that equity-linked notes (ELNs) sold to retail investors in initial public offerings are typically issued at above their fair market value. A particular type of ELN – reverse convertibles – embed down-and-in put options and offer investors relatively high coupon payments in exchange for bearing ...

A matrix approach to the statistics of longevity in heterogeneous frailty models
Background: The gamma-Gompertz model is a fixed frailty model in which baseline mortality increasesexponentially with age, frailty has a proportional effect on mortality, and frailty at birth follows a gamma distribution.
