Pricing joint claims on an asset and its realized variance under stochastic volatility models

Abstract: In a stochastic volatility framework, we find a general pricing equation for the class of payoffs depending on the terminal value of a market asset and its final quadratic variation. This allows a pricing tool for European-style claims paying off at maturity a joint function of the underlying and its realised volatility/variance. We study the solution under different stochastic volatility models, give a formula for the computation of the Delta and Gamma of these claims, and introduce some new interesting payoffs that can be priced through this equation. Numerical results are given and compared to those from plain vanilla derivatives.
