High-frequency dynamics of the implied volatility surface

Abstract

We present a Hawkes modeling of the volatility surface's high-frequency dynamics and show how the Hawkes kernel coefficients govern the surface's skew and convexity. We provide simple sufficient conditions on the coefficients to ensure no-arbitrage opportunities of the surface. Moreover, these conditions reduce the number of the kernel's parameters to estimate. Finally, we show that at the macroscopic level, the surface is driven by a sum of risk factors whose volatility processes are rough.
