Stochastic volatility models with volatility driven by fractional Brownian motions

Generalized fractional Lévy processes with fractional Brownian motion limit and applications to stochastic volatility models

Fractional Lévy processes generalize fractional Brownian motion in a natural way. We go a step further and extend the usual fractional Riemann-Liouville kernels to the more general class of regularly varying functions with the corresponding fractional integration parameter. The resulting stochastic processes are called generalized fractional Lévy processes (GFLP). Moreover, we define stochastic...

Complete Models with Stochastic Volatility

The paper proposes an original class of models for the continuous time price process of a nancial security with non-constant volatility. The idea is to deene instantaneous volatility in terms of exponentially-weighted moments of historic log-price. The instantaneous volatility is therefore driven by the same stochastic factors as the price process, so that unlike many other models of non-consta...

Estimating and Forecasting Generalized Fractional Long Memory Stochastic Volatility Models

This paper considers a flexible class of time series models generated by Gegenbauer polynomials incorporating the long memory in stochastic volatility (SV) components in order to develop the General Long Memory SV (GLMSV) model. We examine the corresponding statistical properties of this model, discuss the spectral likelihood estimation and investigate the finite sample properties via Monte Car...
