摘要翻译：
在这项工作中，我们的目的是获得更好的理解波动微笑观察在期权市场的微观模拟(MS)。在我们的MS模型中，我们采用了两种类型的活跃交易者：投机者和套利者，以及一种基础资产的看涨和看跌期权。投机者根据他们对期权到期时资产价格的预期做出决定。套利者利用不同的套利机会进行交易，如违反看跌平价。期权之间的流动性差异也包括在内。尽管它简单，我们的模型可以产生类似于经验观察的隐含波动率(IV)曲线。我们的结果表明，波动微笑与异质交易行为的竞争效应和差异流动性的影响有关。

英文摘要：
  In this work, we aim to gain a better understanding of the volatility smile observed in options markets through microsimulation (MS). We adopt two types of active traders in our MS model: speculators and arbitrageurs, and call and put options on one underlying asset. Speculators make decisions based on their expectations of the asset price at the option expiration time. Arbitrageurs trade at different arbitrage opportunities such as violation of put-call parity. Difference in liquidity among options is also included. Notwithstanding its simplicity, our model can generate implied volatility (IV) curves similar to empirical observations. Our results suggest that the volatility smile is related to the competing effect of heterogeneous trading behavior and the impact of differential liquidity.
