On some functionals of the first passage times in jump models of stochastic volatility
We compute some functionals related to the generalized joint Laplace transforms of the first times at which two-dimensional jump processes exit half strips. It is assumed that the state space components are driven by Cox processes with both independent and common (positive) exponential jump components. The method of proof is based on the solutions of the equivalent partial integro-differential boundary-value problems for the associated value functions. The results are illustrated on several two-dimensional jump models of stochastic volatility which are based on non-affine analogs of certain mean-reverting or diverting diffusion processes representing closed-form solutions of the appropriate stochastic differential equations.
