On the integral of geometric Brownian motion

Abstract. This paper studies the law of any power of the integral of geometric Brownian motion over any finite time interval. As its main results, two integral representations for this law are derived. This is by enhancing the Laplace transform ansatz of [Y] with complex analytic methods, which is the main methodological contribution of the paper. The one of our integrals has a similar structure to that obtained in [Y], while the other is in terms of Hermite functions as those of [Du01]. Performing or not performing a certain Girsanov transformation is identified as the source of these two forms of the laws. For exponents equal to 1 our results specialize to those obtained in [Y], but for exponents equal to minus 1 they give representations for the laws which are markedly different from those obtained in [Du01].
