Abstract

This note studies an issue relating to essential smoothness that can arise when the theory of large deviations is applied to a certain option pricing formula in the Heston model. The note identifies a gap, based on this issue, in the proof of Corollary 2.4 in \cite{FordeJacquier10} and describes how to circumvent it. This completes the proof of Corollary 2.4 in \cite{FordeJacquier10} and hence of the main result in \cite{FordeJacquier10}, which describes the limiting behaviour of the implied volatility smile in the Heston model far from maturity.
