Local volatility in the Heston model: a Malliavin calculus approach

Christian-Oliver Ewald

International Journal of Stochastic Analysis, 2005, vol. 2005, 1-16

Abstract:

We implement the Heston stochastic volatility model by using multidimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes and a special Girsanov transformation, and consider the Malliavin calculus of this model. We derive explicit formulas for the Malliavin derivatives of the Heston volatility and the log-price, and give a formula for the local volatility which is approachable by Monte-Carlo methods.
