public class LIBORMarketModelFromCovarianceModel extends AbstractProcessModel implements LIBORMarketModel, Serializable
Implements a (generalized) LIBOR market model with generic covariance structure (lognormal, normal, displaced or stochastic volatility) with some drift approximation methods.

In its default case the class specifies a multi-factor LIBOR market model in its log-normal formulation, that is Lj = exp(Yj) where \[ dY_{j} = \mu_{j} dt + \lambda_{1,j} dW_{1} + \ldots + \lambda_{m,j} dW_{m} \]
The model uses an LIBORCovarianceModel for the specification of (λ1,j,...,λm,j) as a covariance model. See ProcessModel for details on the implemented interface

However, the class is more general:
  • The model may be log-normal or normal specification with a given local volatility.
  • The class implements different measure(drift) / numeraire pairs: terminal measure and spot measure.
  • The class allows to configure a discounting curve (e.g. for "OIS discounting") using a simple deterministic zero spread. In this case, the numeraire \( N(t) \) is adjusted by \( \exp( \int_0^t -\lambda(\tau) d\tau ) \).

The class specifies a LIBOR market model, that is Lj = f(Yj) where
  • f is f(x) = exp(x) (default, log-normal LIBOR Market Model) or
  • f is f(x) = x (normal model, used if property.set("stateSpace","NORMAL"))
and
dYj = μj dt + λ1,j dW1 + ... + λm,j dWm

see ProcessModel for details on the implemented interface.
The model uses an AbstractLIBORCovarianceModel as a covariance model. If the covariance model is of type AbstractLIBORCovarianceModelParametric a calibration to swaptions can be performed.
Note that λ may still depend on L, hence generating a log-normal dynamic for L even if the stateSpace property has been set to NORMAL.
The map properties allows to configure the model. The following keys may be used:
  • measure: Possible values:
    • SPOT: Simulate under spot measure. In this case, the single curve numeraire is \( N(T_{i}) = \prod_{j=0}^{i-1} (1 + L(T_{j},T_{j+1};T_{j}) (T_{j+1}-T_{j})) \).
    • TERMINAL: Simulate under terminal measure. In this case, the single curve numeraire is \( N(T_{i}) = P(T_{n};T_{i}) = \prod_{j=i}^{n-1} (1 + L(T_{j},T_{j+1};T_{i}) (T_{j+1}-T_{j}))^{-1} \).
  • stateSpace: Possible values:
    • LOGNORMAL: The state space transform is set to exp, i.e., L = exp(Y). When the covariance model is deterministic, then this is the classical lognormal LIBOR market model. Note that the covariance model may still provide a local volatility function.
    • NORMAL: The state space transform is set to identity, i.e., L = Y. When the covariance model is deterministic, then this is a normal LIBOR market model. Note that the covariance model may still provide a local volatility function.
  • simulationTimeInterpolationMethod: Possible values:
    • ROUND_DOWN: \( L(S,T;t) \) is mapped to \( L(S,T,t_{j}) \) with \( t_{j} \) being the largest time in the time discretization such that \( t_{j} \leq t \).
    • ROUND_NEAREST: \( L(S,T;t) \) is mapped to \( L(S,T,t_{j}) \) with \( t_{j} \) being the nearest time in the time discretization.
  • liborCap: An optional Double value applied as a cap to the LIBOR rates. May be used to limit the simulated valued to prevent values attaining POSITIVE_INFINITY and numerical problems. To disable the cap, set liborCap to Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY.

The main task of this class is to calculate the risk-neutral drift and the corresponding numeraire given the covariance model. The calibration of the covariance structure is not part of this class. For the calibration of parametric models of the instantaneous covariance see AbstractLIBORCovarianceModelParametric.getCloneCalibrated(LIBORMarketModel, CalibrationProduct[], Map).

    • getDrift

      public RandomVariable[] getDrift​(MonteCarloProcess process, int timeIndex, RandomVariable[] realizationAtTimeIndex, RandomVariable[] realizationPredictor)
      Return the complete vector of the drift for the time index timeIndex, given that current state is realizationAtTimeIndex. The drift will be zero for rates being already fixed. The method currently provides the drift for either Measure.SPOT or Measure.TERMINAL - depending how the model object was constructed. For Measure.TERMINAL the j-th entry of the return value is the random variable \[ \mu_{j}^{\mathbb{Q}^{P(T_{n})}}(t) \ = \ - \mathop{\sum_{l\geq j+1}}_{l\leq n-1} \frac{\delta_{l}}{1+\delta_{l} L_{l}(t)} (\lambda_{j}(t) \cdot \lambda_{l}(t)) \] and for Measure.SPOT the j-th entry of the return value is the random variable \[ \mu_{j}^{\mathbb{Q}^{N}}(t) \ = \ \sum_{m(t) < l\leq j} \frac{\delta_{l}}{1+\delta_{l} L_{l}(t)} (\lambda_{j}(t) \cdot \lambda_{l}(t)) \] where \( \lambda_{j} \) is the vector for factor loadings for the j-th component of the stochastic process (that is, the diffusion part is \( \sum_{k=1}^m \lambda_{j,k} \mathrm{d}W_{k} \)). Note: The scalar product of the factor loadings determines the instantaneous covariance. If the model is written in log-coordinates (using exp as a state space transform), we find \(\lambda_{j} \cdot \lambda_{l} = \sum_{k=1}^m \lambda_{j,k} \lambda_{l,k} = \sigma_{j} \sigma_{l} \rho_{j,l} \). If the model is written without a state space transformation (in its orignial coordinates) then \(\lambda_{j} \cdot \lambda_{l} = \sum_{k=1}^m \lambda_{j,k} \lambda_{l,k} = L_{j} L_{l} \sigma_{j} \sigma_{l} \rho_{j,l} \).
      Specified by:
      getDrift in interface ProcessModel
      Parameters:
      process - The discretization process generating this model. The process provides call backs for TimeDiscretization and allows calls to getProcessValue for timeIndices less or equal the given one.

      Returns:
      The drift vector μ(ti) as RandomVariableFromDoubleArray[]
      See Also:
      The calculation of the drift is consistent with the calculation of the numeraire in getNumeraire., The factor loading \( \lambda_{j,k} \).
