Option time value transform

This transform does not require any additional correction since the integrant is already bounded for positive and negative moneyess

pdf(x: ndarray[Any, dtype[float64]] | float) → ndarray[Any, dtype[float64]] | float#

Computes the probability density (or mass) function of the process.

It has a base implementation that computes the pdf from the cdf method, but a subclass should overload this method if a more optimized way of computing it is available.

Parameters:: n – Location in the stochastic process domain space. If a numpy array, the output should have the same shape as the input.

pdf_from_characteristic(n: int | None = None, *, max_frequency: float | None = None, simpson_rule: bool = False, use_fft: bool = False, frequency_n: int | None = None) → TransformResult#

Compute the probability density function from the characteristic function.

Parameters:

n – Number of discretization points to use in the transform. If None, use 128.
max_frequency – The maximum frequency to use in the transform. If not provided, the value from the frequency_range() method is used. Only needed for special cases/testing.
simpson_rule – Use Simpson’s rule for integration. Default is False.
use_fft – Use FFT for the transform. Default is False.

pdf_jacobian(x: ndarray[Any, dtype[float64]] | float) → ndarray[Any, dtype[float64]] | float#: Jacobian of the pdf with respect to the parameters of the process. It has a base implementation that computes it from the cdf_jacobian method, but a subclass should overload this method if a more optimized way of computing it is available.
