An arbitrage-free interpolation of class $C^2$ for option prices
This paper presents simple formulae for the local variance gamma model of Carr and Nadtochiy, extended with a piecewise-linear local variance function. The new formulae allow to calibrate the model efficiently to market option quotes. On a small set of quotes, exact calibration is achieved under one millisecond. This effectively results in an arbitrage-free interpolation of class $C^2$. The paper proposes a good regularization when the quotes are noisy. Finally, it puts in evidence an issue of the model at-the-money, which is also present in the related one-step finite difference technique of Andreasen and Huge, and gives two solutions for it.

Sparse modeling approach to the arbitrage-free interpolation of plain-vanilla option prices and implied volatilities
We present a method for the arbitrage-free interpolation of plain-vanilla option prices and implied volatilities, which is based on a system of integral equations that relates terminal density and option prices. Using a …
The Quadratic Local Variance Gamma Model: an arbitrage-free interpolation of class C3 for option prices
This paper generalizes the local variance gamma model of Carr and Nadtochiy, to a piecewise quadratic local variance function. The formulation encompasses the piecewise linear Bachelier and piecewise linear Black local v…
