Abstract

Concentrated Liquidity Market Makers (CLMMs) represent a fundamental innovation in market microstructure, transforming liquidity provision from passive portfolio allocation to active risk management. This evolution creates significant challenges for performance evaluation and strategy optimization, particularly due to the absence of comprehensive historical liquidity data. We address these challenges through a novel methodological framework that reconstructs historical liquidity states from swap transaction data, enabling rigorous backtesting of dynamic liquidity provision strategies. Our parametric reconstruction method achieves high accuracy (approximation errors averaging around 2\%) without relying on historical liquidity snapshots, addressing a critical data gap in decentralized finance research. We apply this framework to evaluate tau-reset strategies--dynamic liquidity reallocation approaches that respond to market movements--across multiple Uniswap v3 pools. Using machine learning to optimize strategy parameters based on market conditions, we identify consistent outperformance (13--23\% higher fees) compared to uniform allocation benchmarks. Our analysis reveals important insights into the risk-return tradeoffs in automated market making, including the critical role of impermanent loss as a dominant risk factor and the effectiveness of asymmetric strategy modifications for capital preservation. These findings contribute to the broader understanding of market microstructure in decentralized exchanges, providing both methodological innovations for performance evaluation and practical insights for liquidity providers navigating this evolving financial landscape.

Modeling interest rate swap volatility with GARCH processes

We examine the conditional volatility dynamics of the USD 1Yx10Y forward swap rate using GARCH(1,1), GJR-GARCH(1,1), and a two-regime Markov-switching GARCH (MSGARCH) model. The analysis uses daily data from 2007 to 2023 and incorporates market-implied measures (ATM swaption volatility and the SRVIX in- dex) together with a broad set of diagnostic tests. Standard GARCH and GJR- GARCH models show stable short-run parameters, but the intercept ω varies markedly across rolling windows, causing instability in the implied long-run vari- ance. This pattern, confirmed by the Nyblom test, motivates adopting a regime- switching specification. MSGARCH mitigates this issue by keeping regime-specific parameters stable and capturing time variation through filtered regime probabili- ties. It delivers the highest log-likelihood and lowest AIC, whereas BIC favours the more parsimonious GJR-GARCH. One-step-ahead backtesting indicates comparable short-horizon accuracy across models, but MSGARCH offers a clearer structural in- terpretation by isolating high- and low-volatility regimes aligned with major market events.

Optimal Investment and Consumption in Financial Markets with Integrated Variance Clocks

We study the infinite-horizon optimal investment and consumption problem in a general class of continuous financial markets, where uncertainty is driven by a continuous non-decreasing stochastic clock representing accumulated variance. This framework encompasses classical Markovian and non-Markovian stochastic volatility models as well as singular realized-variance models in which no spot volatility process exists. We characterize the value process and optimal investment and consumption strategies in terms of a non-linear infinite-horizon backward stochastic differential equation driven jointly by calendar time and the stochastic clock. We develop a general well-posedness theory for this new class of IVC-BSDEs based on the method of sub- and supersolutions, establishing existence, uniqueness, and stability under natural conditions that might be of independent interest beyond the financial application at hand. We are moreover able to identify the sign of the $Z$-component of the solution using Malliavin calculus. We then apply our results to Volterra Heston models with locally integrable kernels, covering both rough and hyper-rough regimes. Exploiting the affine structure of the model, we verify the optimality of the candidate strategies in incomplete markets and obtain an explicit representation of the solution in the complete market case. Owing to the generality of the framework and the weak assumptions imposed on the stochastic clock, our results unify and extend several existing results for optimal investment and consumption, including classical Markovian stochastic volatility models.

Liquidity Provision and Rebate Design in Option Markets

We provide a model for the nested optimisation problem of market making and rebate design problems in option markets and find optimal strategies. A single market maker trades multiple European call options in a local-stochastic volatility option market with both make and take strategies, modeled, respectively, as continuous and impulse controls. Her objective is to maximize, over all admissible make-take strategies, net profit of option portfolio value and cumulative rebate revenue, subject to a penalty on residual portfolio delta and vega. In addition, we demonstrate how an exchange can incentivize a market maker to improve market liquidity by setting suitable fee rebates, thereby resolving its own liquidity attraction problem. To this end, we propose a three-step rebate design scheme with flexibility to accommodate specific liquidity targets imposed by an exchange. Numerical results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
