Option price data are used as inputs for model calibration, risk-neutral density estimation and many other financial applications. The presence of arbitrage in option price data can lead to poor performance or even failure of these tasks, making pre-processing of the data to eliminate arbitrage necessary. Most attention in the relevant literature has been devoted to arbitrage-free smoothing and filtering (i.e. removing) of data. In contrast to smoothing, which typically changes nearly all data, or filtering, which truncates data, we propose to repair data by only necessary and minimal changes. We formulate the data repair as a linear programming (LP) problem, where the no-arbitrage relations are constraints, and the objective is to minimise prices changes within their bid and ask price bounds. Through empirical studies, we show that the proposed arbitrage repair method gives sparse perturbations on data, and is fast when applied to real world large-scale problems due to the LP formulation. In addition, we show that removing arbitrage from prices data by our repair method can improve model calibration with enhanced robustness and reduced calibration error.

This paper presents simple formulae for the local variance gamma model of Carr and Nadtochiy, extended with a piecewise-linear local variance function. The new formulae allow to calibrate the model efficiently to market option quotes. On a small set of quotes, exact calibration is achieved under one millisecond. This effectively results in an arbitrage-free interpolation of class $C^2$. The paper proposes a good regularization when the quotes are noisy. Finally, it puts in evidence an issue of the model at-the-money, which is also present in the related one-step finite difference technique of Andreasen and Huge, and gives two solutions for it.
In this paper, we give a numerical method for pricing long maturity, path dependent options by using the Markov property for each underlying asset. This enables us to approximate a path dependent option by using some kinds of plain vanillas. We give some examples whose underlying assets behave as some popular Levy processes. Moreover, we give some payoffs and functions used to approximate them.
Adaptive wave model for financial option pricing is proposed, as a high-complexity alternative to the standard Black--Scholes model. The new option-pricing model, representing a controlled Brownian motion, includes two wave-type approaches: nonlinear and quantum, both based on (adaptive form of) the Schrodinger equation. The nonlinear approach comes in two flavors: (i) for the case of constant volatility, it is defined by a single adaptive nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation, while for the case of stochastic volatility, it is defined by an adaptive Manakov system of two coupled NLS equations. The linear quantum approach is defined in terms of de Broglies plane waves and free-particle Schrodinger equation. In this approach, financial variables have quantum-mechanical interpretation and satisfy the Heisenberg-type uncertainty relations. Both models are capable of successful fitting of the Black--Scholes data, as well as defining Greeks.

Recently, a novel adaptive wave model for financial option pricing has been proposed in the form of adaptive nonlinear Schr{o}dinger (NLS) equation [Ivancevic a], as a high-complexity alternative to the linear Black-Scholes-Merton model [Black-Schole s-Merton]. Its quantum-mechanical basis has been elaborated in [Ivancevic b]. Both the solitary and shock-wave solutions of the nonlinear model, as well as its linear (periodic) quantum simplification are shown to successfully fit the Black-Scholes data, and define the financial Greeks. This initial wave model (called the Ivancevic option pricing model) has been further extended in [Yan], by providing the new NLS solutions in the form of rogue waves (one-rogon and two-rogon solutions). In this letter, I propose a new financial research program, with a goal to develop a general wave-type model for realistic option-pricing prediction and control. Keywords: General option-price wave modeling, new financial research program
A nonlinear wave alternative for the standard Black-Scholes option-pricing model is presented. The adaptive-wave model, representing controlled Brownian behavior of financial markets, is formally defined by adaptive nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equati ons, defining the option-pricing wave function in terms of the stock price and time. The model includes two parameters: volatility (playing the role of dispersion frequency coefficient), which can be either fixed or stochastic, and adaptive market potential that depends on the interest rate. The wave function represents quantum probability amplitude, whose absolute square is probability density function. Four types of analytical solutions of the NLS equation are provided in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions, all starting from de Broglies plane-wave packet associated with the free quantum-mechanical particle. The best agreement with the Black-Scholes model shows the adaptive shock-wave NLS-solution, which can be efficiently combined with adaptive solitary-wave NLS-solution. Adjustable weights of the adaptive market-heat potential are estimated using either unsupervised Hebbian learning, or supervised Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. In the case of stochastic volatility, it is itself represented by the wave function, so we come to the so-called Manakov system of two coupled NLS equations (that admits closed-form solutions), with the common adaptive market potential, which defines a bidirectional spatio-temporal associative memory.
