Option Pricing with State-dependent Pricing Kernel
We introduce a new volatility model for option pricing that combines Markov switching with the Realized GARCH framework. This leads to a novel pricing kernel with a state-dependent variance risk premium and a pricing formula for European options, which is derived with an analytical approximation method. We apply the Markov switching Realized GARCH model to S&P 500 index options from 1990 to 2019 and find that investors' aversion to volatility-specific risk is time-varying. The proposed framework outperforms competing models and reduces (in-sample and out-of-sample) option pricing errors by 15% or more.

Path Integral Method for Pricing Proportional Step Double-Barrier Option with Time Dependent Parameters
Path integral method in quantum mechanics provides a new thinking for barrier option pricing. For proportional double-barrier step (PDBS) options, the option price changing process is analogous to a particle moving in a …
Option Pricing with Time-Varying Volatility Risk Aversion
We introduce a pricing kernel with time-varying volatility risk aversion to explain observed time variations in the shape of the pricing kernel. When combined with the Heston-Nandi GARCH model, this framework yields a tr…
Data-driven Option Pricing
We propose an innovative data-driven option pricing methodology that relies exclusively on the dataset of historical underlying asset prices. While the dataset is rooted in the objective world, option prices are commonly…
Time series generation for option pricing on quantum computers using tensor network
Finance, especially option pricing, is a promising industrial field that might benefit from quantum computing. While quantum algorithms for option pricing have been proposed, it is desired to devise more efficient implem…
