Robust Hedging Valuation Adjustment for Deep Hedging Policies under Market Frictions

Hedging a derivative position under transaction costs and market frictions requires a trading rule that adapts to changing conditions. Deep hedging trains a neural policy for this task but policy training does not determine whether a trading desk can afford to run the policy. We apply robust hedging valuation adjustment (HVA) as a post-training valuation-adjustment layer that evaluates tracking-loss CVaR together with explicit funding and margin add-ons. The funding and margin add-ons share the same KL uncertainty set as HVA. For each policy, a single common-stress tilt computes HVA, funding and margin jointly and a trading desk can get one internally consistent reserve instead of the three separately. We compare classical hedge policies with learned hedge specifications across three market environments with different liquidity. No single specification dominates in every market. Under the strict tracking-risk budget, gamma-wide classical bands are selected in High and Middle Liquidity while sparse learned execution is selected in Low Liquidity. At looser validation budgets wider classical bands are generally selected.

Differential Machine Learning for 0DTE Options with Stochastic Volatility and Jumps

We present a differential machine learning method for zero-days-to-expiry (0DTE) options under a stochastic-volatility jump-diffusion model. To handle the ultra-short-maturity regime, we express the option price in Black-Scholes form with a maturity-gated variance correction, combining supervision on prices and Greeks with a PIDE-residual penalty. Prices and Greeks are derived from a single trained pricing network, while jump-term identifiability is ensured by a jump-operator network fitted jointly in a three-stage procedure. The method improves jump-term approximation relative to one-stage baselines while maintaining comparable pricing errors. Furthermore, it reduces errors in Greeks, produces stable one-day delta hedges, and offers significant speedups over Fourier-based benchmarks. Calibration experiments demonstrate the network's efficiency as a pricer and incorporating jump-intensity price sensitivity into the learning process further improves the overall model fit. We also consider a jump rough Heston model.

Environmental CVA with KL-Robust Wrong-Way Risk

Although climate and nature related scenario analysis is increasingly important in finance, operational implementations remain limited for translating long horizon environmental scenarios into counterparty credit risk measures used in pricing and regulatory capital. We propose an environmental valuation adjustment framework for CVA with three components: (i) a scenario to credit translation that maps environmental scenario drivers into hazard rates; (ii) nature specific tail generators that quantify model risk in scenario generation; and (iii) a distributionally robust wrong way risk bound based on Kullback Leibler (KL) divergence. We compute climate CVAs using transition scenarios and nature CVAs using biodiversity indicators. Our results show that nature CVAs can vary materially across alternative ecosystem generators, highlighting an additional source of model uncertainty.

Robust Hedging Valuation Adjustment under Liquidity--Demand Stress

This paper develops a robust hedging valuation adjustment (HVA) measure for dynamic hedging. Simulated rebalancing and maturity-unwind trades generate a loss distribution for each no-trade-band rule, and we define robust HVA as the worst-case expected loss over a relative-entropy neighborhood of that distribution. Because band width affects turnover, the same relative-entropy radius applied to different bands can imply different levels of demand-liquidity stress. We distinguish a fixed-radius convention from a fixed benchmark-stress convention and show that wider no-trade bands lower rebalancing costs but raise hedge-error risk.

Diagram-to-Circuit QNLP for Financial Sentiment Analysis

We study a \emph{QDisCoCirc}-inspired, chunked diagram-to-circuit quantum natural language processing (QNLP) model for three-class sentiment classification of financial texts. In our classical simulations, we keep the Hilbert-space dimension manageable by decomposing each sentence into short contiguous chunks. Each chunk is mapped to a shallow quantum circuit, and the resulting Bloch vectors are used as a sequence of quantum tokens. Simple averaging of chunk vectors ignores word order and syntactic roles. We therefore add a small Transformer encoder over the raw Bloch-vector sequence and attach a CCG-based type embedding to each chunk. This hybrid design preserves physically interpretable semantic axes of quantum tokens while allowing the classical side to model word order and long-range dependencies. The sequence model improves test macro-F1 over the averaging baseline and chunk-level attribution further shows that evidential mass concentrates on a small number of chunks, that type embeddings are used more reliably for correctly predicted sentences. For real-world quantum language processing applications in finance, future key challenges include circuit designs that avoid chunking and the design of inter-chunk fusion layers.

Application of deep quantum neural networks to finance

The recent development of quantum computing gives us an opportunity to explore its potential applications to many fields, with the field of finance being no exception. In this paper, we apply the deep quantum neural network proposed by Beer et al. (2020) and discuss such potential in the context of simple experiments such as learning implied volatilities and option prices. Furthermore, Greeks such as delta and gamma, which are important measures in risk management, can be computed analytically with the neural network, and our numerical experiments show that the deep quantum neural network is a promising technique for solving such numerical problems arising in finance efficiently.
