Abstract: | This paper gives examples of explicit arbitrage-free term structure models with Lévy jumps via the state price density approach.
By generalizing quadratic Gaussian models, it is found that the probability density function of a Lévy process is a “natural”
scale for the process to be the state variable of a market.
