Classical (It\^o diffusions) stochastic volatility models are not able to capture the steepness of small-maturity implied volatility smiles. Jumps, in particular exponential L\'evy and affine models, which exhibit small-maturity exploding…

The dynamics of the {\em generalized} CEV process $dX_t = aX_t^n dt+ bX_t^m dW_t$ $(gCEV)$ is due to an interplay of two feedback mechanisms: State-to-Drift and State-to-Diffusion, whose degrees are $n$ and $m$ respectively. We particularly…
