    Can some one explain the Local Volatility (Dupire's Formula) for me?

    Thanks Bastian. I am not sure about adjoint/backward argument. But dose that mean we take the derivatives with respect to K and T, in which the stock price at time T also equals to K. So take both derivatives comes the same result but means two different things.

    Can some one explain the Local Volatility (Dupire's Formula) for me?

    When I was reading the book Martingale method in financial modeling. In the local volatility part(P248-P249 of 2nd version), author gives me two formulas. One take the derivatives of the call with respect to K, another with respect to s. How to interpret this and explain this? Can anyone help?
