The distribution 1) is properly normalized and 2) obeys the tower law (semigroup property), so we can construct martingales and self-financing hedging strategies and price claims (options). This model is a 1-constant-parameter extension of

The Heston Model with Time-Dependent Correlation Driven by Isospectral Flows
In this work, we extend the Heston stochastic volatility model by including a time-dependent correlation that is driven by isospectral flows instead of a constant correlation, being motivated by the fact that the correlation between, e.g., financial ...
