Semi-Static and Sparse Variance-Optimal Hedging
We consider hedging of a contingent claim by a 'semi-static' strategy composed of a dynamic position in one asset and static (buy-and-hold) positions in other assets. We give general representations of the optimal strategy and the hedging error under the criterion of variance-optimality and provide tractable formulas using Fourier-integration in case of the Heston model. We also consider the problem of optimally selecting a sparse semi-static hedging strategy, i.e. a strategy which only uses a small subset of available hedging assets. The developed methods are illustrated in an extended numerical example where we compute a sparse semi-static hedge for a variance swap using European options as static hedging assets.

Quantile Hedging in a Semi-Static Market with Model Uncertainty
With model uncertainty characterized by a convex, possibly non-dominated set of probability measures, the agent minimizes the cost of hedging a path dependent contingent claim with given expected success ratio, in a disc…
First order Martingale model risk and semi-static hedging
We investigate model risk distributionally robust sensitivities for functionals on the Wasserstein space when the underlying model is constrained to the martingale class and/or is subject to constraints on the first marg…
Optimal semi-static hedging in illiquid markets
We study indifference pricing of exotic derivatives by using hedging strategies that take static positions in quoted derivatives but trade the underlying and cash dynamically over time. We use real quotes that come with …
Model-independent Superhedging under Portfolio Constraints
In a discrete-time market, we study model-independent superhedging, while the semi-static superhedging portfolio consists of {\it three} parts: static positions in liquidly traded vanilla calls, static positions in other…
modelExplicit Computations for Delayed Semistatic Hedging
In this work we consider the exponential utility maximization problem in the framework of semistatic hedging.
