Abstract
We use modifications of the Adams method and very fast and accurate sinh-acceleration method of the Fourier inversion (iFT) (S.Boyarchenko and Levendorski\u{i}, IJTAF 2019, v.22) to evaluate prices of vanilla options; for options of moderate and long maturities and strikes not very far from the spot, thousands of prices can be calculated in several msec. with relative errors of the order of 0.5\% and smaller running Matlab on a Mac with moderate characteristics. We demonstrate that for the calibrated set of parameters in Euch and Rosenbaum, Math. Finance 2019, v. 29, the correct implied volatility surface is significantly flatter and fits the data very poorly, hence, the calibration results in op.cit. is an example of the {\em ghost calibration} (M.Boyarchenko and Levendorki\u{i}, Quantitative Finance 2015, v. 15): the errors of the model and numerical method almost cancel one another. We explain how calibration errors of this sort are generated by each of popular versions of numerical realizations of iFT (Carr-Madan, Lipton-Lewis and COS methods) with prefixed parameters of a numerical method, resulting in spurious volatility smiles and skews. We suggest a general {\em Conformal Bootstrap principle} which allows one to avoid ghost calibration errors. We outline schemes of application of Conformal Bootstrap principle and the method of the paper to the design of accurate and fast calibration procedures.
