Volatility is (Mostly) Path Dependent

Code for the paper https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4174589.

This code contains the functions to:

• Perform the fitting of one model on historical price (see empirical_study.ipynb). We show one example on SPX and VIX from Yahoo! Finance data.
• Compute a SPX or VIX vanilla call price using our 4-factor markovian PDV model (see option_pricing_4fmpdv.ipynb)
