The Variance Gamma++ process and applications to energy markets [PDF]
AbstractThe purpose of this article is to introduce a new Lévy process, termed the Variance Gamma++ process, to model the dynamics of assets in illiquid markets. Such a process has the mathematical tractability of the Variance Gamma process and is obtained by applying the self‐decomposability of the gamma law.

Variance Gamma (nonlocal) equations
Some equations are provided for the Variance Gamma process using the definition other than that based on a time-changed Brownian motion. A new nonlocal equation is obtained involving generalized Weyl derivatives, which is true even in the drifted case ...

Special greeks of a variance-gamma driven vasicek model
Abrupt happenings in financial markets have resulted to the need to adopt Lévy processes such as a variance gamma process in modelling financial derivatives since it has the ability to capture jumps that occur in such scenario.

Extension of Short Rate Model Under a Lévy Process
A lot of abnormalities occur in real-life scenarios, thus leading to some difficulties in modelling such scenarios without a deeper understanding of certain aspects of Lévy processes.

Lévy processes are useful tools for analysis and modeling of jump‐diffusion processes. Such processes are commonly used in the financial and physical sciences. One approach to building new Lévy processes is through subordination, or a random time change.

Design of a Pure Endowment Life Insurance Contract Based on Optimal Stochastic Control [PDF]
In this paper, we design a pure-endowment insurance contract and obtain the optimal strategy and consumption for a policyholder with CRRA utility function. In this contract, premiums are received from the policyholder at certain times.
