Abstract

This chapter considers jump-diffusion processes to allow for price fluctuations to have two components, one consisting of the usual increments of a Wiener process, the second allows for “large” jumps from time-to-time. We introduce Poisson jump process with either absolute or proportional jump sizes through the stochastic integrals and provide solutions when both the stock price and Poisson jump size are log-normal. We also extend Ito’s lemma for the jump-diffusion processes.
