Acknowledgements

I am sincerely grateful to everyone who helped me directly and indirectly during my work on this book. First of all, I would like to deeply thank my wife, Ling Ouyang, for her moral support during the challenging period of writing this book and giving me the confidence to go for my objectives. I also acknowledge my parents for their belief, encouragement, and support. Further thanks go to my previous Ph.D. supervisor, Prof. Chenghu Ma. Chenghu provided me the first insights related to the general equilibrium topic and first motivated me to price jump risks implicit in the option market. His time, patience, guide, innovative idea, and constructive suggestions are invaluable. I am also greatly indebted to Haomiao Zuo who provides a great research assistant work for this book.
