Volatility-of-Volatility Risk [PDF]
We show that market volatility of volatility is a significant risk factor that affects index and volatility index option returns, beyond volatility itself. The volatility and volatility of volatility indices, identified model-free as the VIX and VVIX, respectively, are only weakly related to each other.

In recent years, with the availability of high-frequency financial market data modeling realized volatility has become a new and innovative research direction. The construction of “observable” or realized volatility series from intra-day transaction data and the use of standard time-series techniques has lead to promising strategies for modeling and ...

From volatility smiles to the volatility of volatility [PDF]
The authors review models of the option surface and reduced-form models for stochastic volatility in continuous time, under the risk-neutral measure. They introduce ``forward volatilities'' (in analogy with forward interest rates in the term structure theory), and prove that such objects are conditional expected values, under the risk-neutral measure ...

Volatility Forecasting for Low-Volatility Investing
Low-volatility investing often involves sorting and selecting stocks based on retrospective risk measures, for example, the historical standard deviation of returns. In this paper, we use the volatility forecasts from a wide spectrum of volatility models to sort and select stocks and estimate portfolio weights.

Volatility Options in Rough Volatility Models [PDF]
We discuss the pricing and hedging of volatility options in some rough volatility models. First, we develop efficient Monte Carlo methods and asymptotic approximations for computing option prices and hedge ratios in models where log-volatility follows a Gaussian Volterra process.
