I explicitly work out closed form solutions for the optimal hedging
strategies (in the sense of Bouchaud and Sornette) in the case of European call
options, where the underlying is modeled by (unbiased) iid additive returns
with Student-t distributions. The results may serve as illustrative examples
for option pricing in the presence of fat tails.
