Abstract

In this part of the book we consider another local volatility model. In this model the underlying is driven by a Variance Gamma process of [Madan and Seneta (1990)], rather than the Geometric Brownian Motion, but also equipped with a local volatility function. Such a model was first proposed in [Carr and Nadtochiy (2014)] to (i) improve computational efficiency of calibration of the local volatility surface, and (ii) to built a richer flavor of the local volatility model. The latter is achieved by adding a stochastic volatility component via a stochastic change of time. We will discuss this in more detail in what follows…
