摘要翻译：
在本文中，我们展示了如何将多个资产的欧式看涨和看跌期权与某些称为lift Zonoid的凸体联系起来。基于此，几何性质可以转化为经济报表，反之亦然。例如，欧洲的看涨-看跌平价对应于中心对称性，而对偶市场的概念可以用相对于平面的反射来解释。经典的单变量对数正态模型属于一大类分布，具有一个额外的性质，解析上称为put-call对称性。这种对称性的几何解释激发了自然的多元扩展。解释了这种扩展的金融含义，刻画了具有这种性质的资产价格分布，并探讨了它们的进一步性质。文中还说明了如何通过功率变换将一些多元非对称分布与对称分布联系起来，这种功率变换有助于调整携带成本。特别关注由L\'evy过程驱动的资产价格的情况。在此基础上，提出了多资产障碍期权的半静态套期保值技术。

英文摘要：
  In this paper we show how to relate European call and put options on multiple assets to certain convex bodies called lift zonoids. Based on this, geometric properties can be translated into economic statements and vice versa. For instance, the European call-put parity corresponds to the central symmetry property, while the concept of dual markets can be explained by reflection with respect to a plane. It is known that the classical univariate log-normal model belongs to a large class of distributions with an extra property, analytically known as put-call symmetry. The geometric interpretation of this symmetry property motivates a natural multivariate extension. The financial meaning of this extension is explained, the asset price distributions that have this property are characterised and their further properties explored. It is also shown how to relate some multivariate asymmetric distributions to symmetric ones by a power transformation that is useful to adjust for carrying costs. A particular attention is devoted to the case of asset prices driven by L\'evy processes. Based on this, semi-static hedging techniques for multiasset barrier options are suggested.
