Density Approximation of Affine Jump Diffusions via Closed-Form Moment Matching
We develop a recursive approach for deriving closed-form solutions to both conditional and unconditional moments of affine jump diffusions with state-independent jump intensities. Using these moment solutions, we construct closed-form density approximations (up to a normalization constant) via moment matching for both conditional and unconditional distributions. Our framework enables important financial applications, including efficient option pricing and exact simulation for affine jump diffusions. Numerical experiments demonstrate the method's superior computational efficiency compared to existing simulation techniques, while preserving numerical precision.

Affine Jump-Diffusions: Stochastic Stability and Limit Theorems
Affine jump-diffusions constitute a large class of continuous-time stochastic models that are particularly popular in finance and economics due to their analytical tractability. Methods for parameter estimation for such …

We develop a comprehensive mathematical framework for polynomial jump-diffusions in a semimartingale context, which nest affine jump-diffusions and have broad applications in finance. We show that the polynomial property…
Closed-form approximations of moments and densities of continuous-time Markov models
This paper develops power series expansions of a general class of moment functions, including transition densities and option prices, of continuous-time Markov processes, including jump--diffusions. The proposed expansio…
FormOption pricing in affine generalized Merton models
In this article we consider affine generalizations of the Merton jump diffusion model [Merton, J. Fin. Econ., 1976] and the respective pricing of European options. On the one hand, the Brownian motion part in the Merton …
A Term Structure Model for Dividends and Interest Rates
Over the last decade, dividends have become a standalone asset class instead of a mere side product of an equity investment. We introduce a framework based on polynomial jump-diffusions to jointly price the term structur…
