Title
Equilibruim approach of asset pricing under Lévy process.
Abstract
This work considers the equilibrium approach of asset pricing for Levy process. It derives the equity premium and pricing kernel analytically for the stock price process, obtains an equilibrium option pricing formula, and explains some empirical evidence such as the negative variance risk premium, implied volatility smirk, and negative skewness risk premium by comparing the physical and risk-neutral distributions of the log return. Different from most of the current studies in equilibrium pricing under jump diffusion models, this work models the underlying asset price as the exponential of a Levy process and thus allows nearly an arbitrage distribution of the jump component.
