Abstract: We present a detailed analysis and implementation of a splitting strategy to identify simultaneously the local-volatility surface and the jump-size distribution from quoted European prices. The underlying model consists of a jump-diffusion driven asset with time and price dependent volatility. Our approach uses a forward Dupire-type partial-integro-differential equations for the option prices to produce a parameter-to-solution map. The ill-posed inverse problem for such map is then solved by means of a Tikhonov-type convex regularization. The proofs of convergence and stability of the algorithm are provided together with numerical examples that substantiate the robustness of the method both for synthetic and real data.
