Regularization and analytic option pricing under $\alpha$-stable distribution of arbitrary asymmetry
We consider a non-Gaussian option pricing model, into which the underlying log-price is assumed to be driven by an $\alpha$-stable distribution. We remove the a priori divergence of the model by introducing a Mellin regularization for the L\'evy propagator. Using distributional and $\mathbb{C}^n$ tools, we derive an analytic closed formula for the option price, valid for any stability $\alpha\in]1,2]$ and any asymmetry. This formula is very efficient and recovers previous cases (Black-Scholes, Carr-Wu); we calibrate the formula on market datas, make numerical tests, and discuss its many interesting properties.

Pricing energy spread options with variance gamma-driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck dynamics
We consider the pricing of energy spread options for spot prices following an exponential Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process driven by a sum of independent multivariate variance gamma processes. Within this class of mean-reverti…
Pricing European Options under Stochastic Volatility Models: Case of five-Parameter Variance-Gamma Process
The paper builds a Variance-Gamma (VG) model with five parameters: location ($\mu$), symmetry ($\delta$), volatility ($\sigma$), shape ($\alpha$), and scale ($\theta$); and studies its application to the pricing of Europ…
Pricing methods for $α$-quantile and perpetual early exercise options based on Spitzer identities
We present new numerical schemes for pricing perpetual Bermudan and American options as well as $\alpha$-quantile options. This includes a new direct calculation of the optimal exercise barrier for early-exercise options…
Analytical Path-Integral Pricing of Moving-Barrier Options under non-Gaussian Distributions
In this work we present an analytical model, based on the path-integral formalism of Statistical Mechanics, for pricing options using first-passage time problems involving both fixed and deterministically moving absorbin…
Semi-analytical pricing of options written on SOFR futures
In this paper, we propose a semi-analytical approach to pricing options on SOFR futures where the underlying SOFR follows a time-dependent CEV model. By definition, these options change their type at the beginning of the…
