    Short-dated smile under rough volatility: asymptotics and numerics
    (London : Taylor & Francis, 2021) Friz, Peter K.; Gassiat, Paul; Pigato, Paolo
    In Friz et al. [Precise asymptotics for robust stochastic volatility models. Ann. Appl. Probab, 2021, 31(2), 896–940], we introduce a new methodology to analyze large classes of (classical and rough) stochastic volatility models, with special regard to short-time and small-noise formulae for option prices, using the framework [Bayer et al., A regularity structure for rough volatility. Math. Finance, 2020, 30(3), 782–832]. We investigate here the fine structure of this expansion in large deviations and moderate deviations regimes, together with consequences for implied volatility. We discuss computational aspects relevant for the practical application of these formulas. We specialize such expansions to prototypical rough volatility examples and discuss numerical evidence.

    Precise Laplace asymptotics for singular stochastic PDEs: The case of 2D gPAM
    (Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2022) Friz, Peter K.; Klose, Tom
    We implement a Laplace method for the renormalised solution to the generalised 2D Parabolic Anderson Model (gPAM) driven by a small spatial white noise. Our work rests upon Hairer's theory of regularity structures which allows to generalise classical ideas of Azencott and Ben Arous on path space as well as Aida and Inahama and Kawabi on rough path space to the space of models. The technical cornerstone of our argument is a Taylor expansion of the solution in the noise intensity parameter: We prove precise bounds for its terms and the remainder and use them to estimate asymptotically irrevelant terms to arbitrary order. While most of our arguments are not specific to gPAM, we also outline how to adapt those that are.
