A Study of Option Pricing Using Variance Gamma Process

open access: yesKorean Journal of Applied Statistics, 2012
Option pricing models using Levy processes are suggested as an alternative to the Black-Scholes model since empirical studies showed that the Black-Sholes model could not reflect the movement of underlying assets. In this paper, we investigate whether the Variance Gamma model can reflect the movement of underlying assets in the Korean stock market ...

Efficient pricing of barrier options with the variance-gamma model

open access: yes, 2004
We develop an efficient Monte Carlo algorithm for pricing barrier options with the variance gamma model [fMAD98a]. After generalizing the double-gamma bridge sampling algorithm of [fAVR03a], we develop conditional bounds on the process paths and exploit ...

On the Pricing of Currency Options under Variance Gamma Process

open access: yes, 2020
The pricing of currency options is largely dependent on the dynamic relationship between a pair of currencies. Typically, the pricing of options with payoffs dependent on multi-assets becomes tricky for reasons such as the non-Gaussian distribution of financial variable and non-linear macroeconomic relations between these markets.

Option Pricing with Bounded Expected Loss under Variance-Gamma Processes [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications for Statistical Applications and Methods, 2010
Exponential Levy models have become popular in modeling price processes recently in mathematical finance. Although it is a relatively simple extension of the geometric Brownian motion, it makes the market incomplete so that the option price is not uniquely determined. As a trial to find an appropriate price for an option, we suppose a situation where a

Pricing and Hedging Index Options under Mean-Variance Criteria in Incomplete Markets

open access: yesComputation, 2023
This paper studies the portfolio selection problem where tradable assets are a bank account, and standard put and call options are written on the S&P 500 index in incomplete markets in which there exist bid–ask spreads and finite liquidity.

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This
