Numerical analysis on local risk-minimization forexponential L\'evy models

Abstract

We illustrate how to compute local risk minimization (LRM) of call options for exponential L\'evy models. We have previously obtained a representation of LRM for call options; here we transform it into a form that allows use of the fast Fourier transform method suggested by Carr & Madan. In particular, we consider Merton jump-diffusion models and variance gamma models as concrete applications.
