We derive representations of local risk-minimization of call and put options for Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models: jump type stochastic volatility models whose squared volatility process is given by a non-Gaussian rnstein-Uhlenbeck process. The general form of Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models includes two parameters: volatility risk premium $beta$ and leverage effect $rho$. Arai and Suzuki (2015, arxiv:1503.08589) dealt with the same problem under constraint $beta=-frac{1}{2}$. In this paper, we relax the restriction on $beta$; and restrict $rho$ to $0$ instead. We introduce a Malliavin calculus under the minimal martingale measure to solve the problem.

We obtain explicit representations of locally risk-minimizing strategies of call and put options for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models, which are Ornstein--Uhlenbeck-type stochastic volatility models. Using Malliavin calculus for Levy processes, Arai and Suzuki (2015) obtained a formula for locally risk-minimizing strategies for Levy markets under many additional conditions. Supposing mild conditions, we make sure that the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models satisfy all the conditions imposed in Arai and Suzuki (2015). Among others, we investigate the Malliavin differentiability of the density of the minimal martingale measure. Moreover, some numerical experiments for locally risk-minimizing strategies are introduced.
The VIX call options for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models will be discussed. Derivatives written on the VIX, which is the most popular volatility measurement, have been traded actively very much. In this paper, we give representations of the VIX call option price for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard models: non-Gaussian Ornstein--Uhlenbeck type stochastic volatility models. Moreover, we provide representations of the locally risk-minimizing strategy constructed by a combination of the underlying riskless and risky assets. Remark that the representations obtained in this paper are efficient to develop a numerical method using the fast Fourier transform. Thus, numerical experiments will be implemented in the last section of this paper.
For the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model, we present approximate expressions of call option prices based on the decomposition formula developed by Arai (2021). Besides, some numerical experiments are also implemented to make sure how effective our approximations are.
The objective is to provide an Al`os type decomposition formula of call option prices for the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model: an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type stochastic volatility model driven by a subordinator without drift. Al`os (2012) introduced a decomposition expression for the Heston model by using Itos formula. In this paper, we extend it to the Barndorff-Nielsen and Shephard model. As far as we know, this is the first result on the Al`os type decomposition formula for models with infinite active jumps.
We propose a hedging approach for general contingent claims when liquidity is a concern and trading is subject to transaction cost. Multiple assets with different liquidity levels are available for hedging. Our risk criterion targets a tradeoff between minimizing the risk against fluctuations in the stock price and incurring low liquidity costs. Following c{C}etin U., Jarrow R.A., and Protter P. (2004) we work in an arbitrage-free setting assuming a supply curve for each asset. In discrete time, following the ideas in Schweizer M. (1998) and Lamberton D., Pham H., Schweizer M. (1998) we prove the existence of a locally risk-minimizing strategy under mild conditions on the price process. Under stochastic and time-dependent liquidity risk we give a closed-form solution for an optimal strategy in the case of a linear supply curve model. Finally we show how our hedging method can be applied in energy markets where futures with different maturities are available for trading. The futures closest to their delivery period are usually the most liquid but depending on the contingent claim not necessary optimal in terms of hedging. In a simulation study we investigate this tradeoff and compare the resulting hedge strategies with the classical ones.
