Heston-Amm Model

Algorithm

The Heston-Amm Model integrates the stochastic volatility framework, initially proposed by Heston, with the automated market maker (AMM) paradigm prevalent in decentralized finance. This fusion aims to dynamically adjust impermanent loss exposure within liquidity pools by incorporating a volatility component into pricing mechanisms. Consequently, the model seeks to provide more accurate option pricing and hedging strategies in cryptocurrency markets, addressing limitations inherent in constant product AMMs. Its core function involves calibrating volatility parameters to reflect real-time market conditions, enhancing the efficiency of price discovery and risk management.

AMM

Meaning ⎊ Lyra is an options AMM that uses a Black-Scholes-based pricing model to dynamically adjust for volatility and delta skew, ensuring liquidity providers are accurately compensated for the specific risk they underwrite.
