Abstract

We introduce time-inhomogeneous stochastic volatility models, in which the volatility is described by a nonnegative function of a Volterra type continuous Gaussian process that may have extremely rough sample paths. The drift function and the volatility function are assumed to be time-dependent and locally ω-continuous for some modulus of continuity ω. The main results obtained in the paper are sample path and small-noise large deviation principles for the log-price process in a Gaussian model under very mild restrictions. We use these results to study the asymptotic behavior of binary up-and-in barrier options and binary call options.
