These sylzed facs canno be capured by sandard models, and whle ( has been explaned by usng a fraconal volaly model wh Hurs ndex H > 1/, ( s proven o be sasfed by a rough volaly model wh H < 1/ under a rsk-neural measure. Ths paper provdes a soluon o hs fraconal puzzle n he mpled volaly. Namely, we consruc a wo-facor fraconal volaly model and develop an approxmaon formula for European opon prces. I s shown hrough numercal examples ha our model can resolve he fraconal puzzle, when he correlaons beween he underlyng asse process and he facors of rough volaly and perssence belong o a ceran range. More specfcally, dependng on he hree correlaon values, he mpled volaly surface s classfed no four ypes: (1 he roughness exss, bu he perssence does no; ( he perssence exss, bu he roughness does no; (3 boh he roughness and he perssence exs; and (4 neher he roughness nor he perssence exs. Keywords: fraconal Brownan moon; Hurs ndex; volaly skew; rough volaly; smle amplude; volaly perssence 1. Inroducon In he fnance leraure, here has been a general consensus ha volaly s hghly perssen. There are numerous peces of evdence ha he prce dynamcs of fnancal producs are conssen wh fraconal Brownan moon (fbm volaly models wh Hurs ndex H > 1/, whch mples ha he volaly has a long memory. See, e.g., [1] for he exsence of he long memory feaures n sock marke volales. However, nconssen wh hs sylzed fac, [] recenly fnd ha he log-volaly behaves essenally as an fbm wh H close o zero a any reasonable me scale, by esmang he volaly from hgh frequency daa. Ths puzzle (he word puzzle s used n he conex of usng a fraconal volaly model n opon prcng, bu no used n he conex of fnance n general has no been resolved, alhough one possble explanaon may be he smoohng effec by samplng nervals of daa. Recall ha f H = 1/, he fbm s he sandard Brownan moon (BM, whch s a Markov process wh shor memory. Hence, he fac H < 1/ mples ha volaly s rough. On he oher hand, n he conex of opon prcng, here are also seemngly wo nconssen sylzed facs. Namely, ( he decrease n he smle amplude s much slower han he sandard sochasc volaly models; and ( he erm srucure of he a-he-money volaly skew s well approxmaed by a power-law funcon wh he exponen close o zero. I s well recognzed ha he wo phenomena canno be capured by sandard models. Neverheless, n he opon prcng leraure, hese problems have been suded separaely.

2 Fracal Frac. 17, 1, 14 of 17 The fac ( seems a resul of long memory feaure of volaly and s ndeed explaned n [3,4] by usng he fraconal volaly model wh H > 1/ under a rsk-neural measure Q. They sar wh a fraconal volaly model wh H > 1/ under he physcal measure P, and assumng ha he marke prce of volaly rsk s zero, hey ransform he model o ha under Q. Whle [3] showed ha, hanks o he long memory feaure of volaly wh H > 1/, he model can explan he slow decay of he smle amplude, [4] developed an approxmaon formula for opon prces and confrm he resul numercally when H > 1/. The fac ( s also well-known from emprcal observaons and has been pad much aenon n he fnance leraure. Whle here have been several aemps o explan hs sylzed fac, (see, e.g., [5 7] for possble models ha explan hs sylzed fac, Alòs e al. [6] and Fukasawa [8] proved ha a fraconal volaly model wh H close o zero under Q can have hs sylzed fac for small T. In oher words, hey show ha he volaly s rough under he rsk-neural measure Q for shor maury opons. The am of hs paper s o provde a soluon o he me-scale fraconal puzzle n he mpled volaly. To hs end, we adop he fraconal volaly model consdered n [4] and exend by nroducng anoher fraconal volaly facor wh Hurs ndex H < 1/. Followng he same dea as n [4], we develop an approxmaon formula for European opon prces and confrm ha our model can ncorporae boh perssence and roughness n he volaly under he rsk-neural measure Q, when he correlaons beween he underlyng asse process and he facors of rough volaly and perssence belong o a ceran range. An mporan fndng n hs paper s ha, dependng on he hree correlaon values, he mpled volaly surface s classfed no four ypes: (1 he roughness exss, bu he perssence does no; ( he perssence exss, bu he roughness does no; (3 boh he roughness and he perssence exs; and (4 neher he roughness nor he perssence exs. Hence, he coexsence of he wo sylzed facs requres he wo-facor fraconal volales of roughness and perssence n a non-rval manner. Ths paper s organzed as follows. In he nex secon, we se up our wo-facor fraconal volaly model. By usng he echnque developed n [4], we derve an approxmaon formula for opon prces n Secon 3. Secon 4 s devoed o numercal examples o nvesgae he mpac of he wo Hurs ndexes on opon prces. Through our exensve numercal expermens, we confrm ha our model can resolve he mpled volaly puzzle menoned above. The defnons of he funcons conaned n our approxmaon formula are gven n Appendx A.. The Seup Inspred by he model proposed n [4], we consder he followng wo-facor fraconal volaly model. Namely, he underlyng asse prce S and s volaly σ = σ(x 1, X are modeled by he sochasc dfferenal equaons (SDEs: ds S = (µ qd σ(x 1, X dw, dx = (θ κ X d γ dw H, = 1,, under he physcal measure P, where µ s he nsananeous mean rae of reurn of he asse, q s he (consan dvdend rae and σ(x, y s some smooh funcon n x and y. Here, whle w s a sandard Brownan moon (BM, w H denoes a fraconal Brownan moon (fbm wh Hurs ndex H under P. The volaly σ = σ(x 1, X s formulaed by usng he wo fraconal mean-reverng processes X. Noe ha θ /κ represens he long-erm average of X, κ s he speed of mean reverson and γ s he volaly of X. Laer, we specfy H 1 > 1/ and H < 1/, because we wan o explan he perssen volaly and rough volaly smulaneously. (1

3 Fracal Frac. 17, 1, 14 3 of Inegral Represenaon The fbm w H can be represened n erms of he sochasc negral wh respec o anoher sandard BM. In hs sudy, we fnd useful for he developmen of our approxmaon o employ he Mandelbro Van Ness represenaon of fbms. Namely, we have: w H = 1 Γ(H 1 { } (( s H 1 ( s H 1 dw s ( s H 1 dw s, >, where Γ(a = a 1 e d denoes he gamma funcon and where w s a sandard BM wh consan correlaons dw 1 dw = ρ 1,d and dw dw = ρ d, = 1,. By defnng: and: g H = 1 ( = 1 Γ(H 1 H 1, >, 1 Γ(H 1 we hen have he followng represenaon: (( s H 1 ( s H 1 dw s, >, w H = 1 ( sdw s g H, >. ( Noe ha, gven w, he fuure behavor of w, >, s ndependen of he pas, because he BM w s a Markov process. Hence, supposng ha he pas w, has been observed, he quany gh s consdered o be a deermnsc funcon of me wh g H =. The fraconal mean-reverng process X gven n (1 can be solved as: X = L ( γ e κ ( s dw H s,, L ( = X e κ (1 e κ θ κ κ γ e κ( s g H s ds. By applyng he negraon-by-pars formula and changng he order of negraon, he volaly can be rewren as: X = L ( ( sdw s,, (3 ( ( = γ Γ(H 1 H 1 1 κ H e κ κ x H 1 e x dx. (4 See [4] for he dealed dervaon. Now, we nroduce he marke prces of rsks η and η o defne he sandard BMs W and W under a marngale measure Q. Namely, defne: dw = dw η d; dw = dw η d, = 1, ;, respecvely. I follows from (1 and he sandard argumen ha he asse prce S follows he SDE: ds S = (r qd σ(x 1, X dw,, (5 under Q, where r denoes he rsk-free spo rae, whch we assume o be consan for smplcy.

4 Fracal Frac. 17, 1, 14 4 of 17 By applyng Io s formula, we oban: S = F(, exp σ(xs 1, Xs dw s 1 σ (Xs 1, Xs ds,, (6 where F(, = S e (r q s he forward prce of he underlyng asse wh delvery dae. On he oher hand, he fraconal mean-reverng process X s gven by: X = L ( ( sdw s,, L ( = L ( ( s η sds. Summarzng, our fraconal volaly model s formulaed as: { S = F(, exp σ(x 1, X dw s 1 X = L ( ( sdw s, = 1,, } σ (X 1, X ds, (7 for, where dw 1 dw = ρ 1, d and dw dw = ρ d, = 1,... Some Specal Cases Recall ha we suppose he pas w, has been observed and he quany gh s a deermnsc funcon of me wh g H =. However, seems dffcul o observe he whole pas of w n he acual marke, and so, we assume ha g H = as n [3] n he res of hs paper. Furhermore, followng mos of he prevous research, we assume ha he volaly rsks are fully dversfed, and so, he marke prces of rsks η are zero,.e., η =, for he sake of smplcy. Under hese specfcaons, he fraconal mean-reverng process X s gven by: X = X e κ θ (1 e κ κ ( sdw s,, (8 where ( s defned n (4. Gven hese processes X, he dynamcs of he asse prce S s deermned by he SDE (5. We observe from (8 ha he process X s a sum of a deermnsc funcon h ( and a sochasc convoluon I (, h ( = X e κ θ (1 e κ, I ( = κ ( sdw s, respecvely. For he purpose of Mone Carlo smulaon, we consder he dscree-me process x n = X (n, n = 1,,..., N, where T = N s he opon maury for suffcenly small >. The sochasc convoluon I ( can be approxmaed by a dscree convoluon such as n k=1 ξ n k W k, where ξ k = λh (k and W k = W (k1 W k. The dscree convoluon can be represened by a marx produc, and so, he mean-reverng process x n, n = 1,,..., N, n dscree me can be expressed compacly n marx form as: x1 x.. = h1 h.. ξ1 ξ ξ W W1..

5 Fracal Frac. 17, 1, 14 5 of 17 In he followng, hanks o he above specfcaon, we adop marx Equaon (9 for Mone Carlo smulaon (see, e.g., [9] for Mone Carlo smulaon mehods for general fbms. 3. Approxmaon Formula The call opon prce wren on S wh srke K and maury T s gven by: C(K, T = e rt E [ (S T K ], (1 where (x = max{x, }, and he expecaon s aken over S T under he marngale measure Q. In hs case, all we need o know s he dsrbuon of asse prce S T a he maury T. Le us defne X = 1. From (1, he value of he European call opon s gven by: S F(, [ ( ] C(K, T = S E X T K, K = 1 K F(, T. Wh he densy funcon f T (x of X T a hand, follows ha: C(K, T = S (x K f T (xdx. (11 K In hs secon, we derve an approxmaon formula for opon prces by applyng he echnque used n [4] for he fraconal volaly model (7. To hs end, we expand he underlyng asse no a sum of erave sochasc negrals wh deermnsc negrands. In he followng, we denoe σ ( := σ(l 1 (,, L (, and σ ( := x σ(x1, x x 1 =X 1,x =X The proof of he nex resul s gven n Appendx A. Lemma 1. For X := S /F(, 1, we approxmae by: wh: p 1 (s = σ (s A ( = =1 σ (s σ (s, σ,j ( := x x j σ(x, x j x 1 =X 1,x =X.

Followng he dea gven n [1], he densy funcon f T (x can be approxmaed by f T (x gven n (A16 n Appendx B. By compung (11, he nex resul hen follows. The proof s sraghforward, alhough messy, and omed. Proposon 1. The value of a European call opon wh maury T and srke K under he fraconal volaly model (7 s approxmaed as: C(K, T S [ n( K;, Σ T q3 (T( K 4 Σ 4 6 K Σ T 3Σ T ( K Σ T Σ T (q 4(T q (T { Σ 3 T q 1 (T K q 5 (TΣ T } ] Σ T ( S K 1 Φ( K/ Σ T, where n(x; µ, σ s he densy funcon of he normal dsrbuon wh mean µ and varance σ and Φ(x denoes he cumulave probably funcon of he sandard normal dsrbuon. The defnons of h n (x, q k (T and Σ T are provded n Appendx B. 4. Numercal Examples Ths secon s devoed o numercal sudes of our fraconal volaly model by usng he approxmaon formula gven n Proposon 1. (The accuracy of our approxmaon formula s checked by he Mone Carlo smulaon explaned n Secon.. We noe ha our approxmaon ges gradually worse for he hgh volaly, long maury and deep n-he and ou-of-he money cases. For example, when he percenage volaly defned by η = (γ 1 γ /(X 1 X s bgger han 1.5, our approxmaon seems no enough for praccal uses. For such cases, hgher order approxmaon s requred. Throughou he numercal examples, we use he parameer values lsed n Table 1 as he base case. In parcular, for he Hurs ndexes H 1 and H, Bollerslev and Mkkelsen [1] observed long memory feaures n sock marke volales, and so, we se H 1 =.9 as he perssen volaly. On he oher hand, Bayer e al. [11] clamed (hey repor a good f of her rough volaly model wh H =.7 and he percenage volaly η = 1.9 ha H s of order.1, and so, we se H =.1 as he rough volaly. Fnally, we assume ha he volaly funcon s gven by: T for he sake of smplcy. σ = σ(x 1, X = X 1 X

From Fgure 5, s observed ha, as he correlaon decreases, he decrease of he smle amplude s deceleraed n he case of H 1.5.

Through numercal expermens, we demonsrae ha, when one of he Hurs ndexes n fraconal volaly s larger han 1/ (volaly perssence and he oher s smaller han 1/ (rough volaly, our model can explan boh he slower decay of he smle amplude declne and he erm srucure of he a-he-money volaly skew observed n he opons marke, smulaneously. However, he coexsence of he wo sylzed facs seems non-rval. Namely, dependng on he hree correlaon values beween he underlyng asse and he facors of rough volaly and volaly perssence, he mpled volaly surface s classfed no four ypes: (1 he roughness exss, bu he perssence does no; ( he perssence exss, bu he roughness does no; (3 boh he roughness and he perssence exs; and (4 neher he roughness nor he perssence exs. As fuure work, we plan o apply our model o acual markes. Namely, we develop a fas algorhm o calbrae our model o he opons marke, because our model nvolves many parameers self. Furhermore, s of neres o develop a model under he physcal measure P o explan he volaly perssence and he volaly roughness smulaneously. An asymmerc model beween he perssen volaly and he rough volaly may be of grea mporance.
