Option pricing under jump-diffusion models with mean-reverting bivariate jumps

We propose a jump-diffusion model where the bivariate jumps are serially correlated with a mean-reverting structure. Mathematical analysis of the jump accumulation process is given, and the European call option price is derived in analytical form. The model and analysis are further extended to allow for more general jump sizes. Numerical examples are provided to investigate the effects of mean-reversion in jumps on the risk-neutral return distributions, option prices, hedging parameters, and implied volatility smiles.
