Does anyone know the Ito's formula for jump-diffusions?

All the books and papers I have been able to find so far are very confusing, since most of the the authors of these books and papers seem to be quite confused themselves.

I would appreciate any leads.



because of the finite size of the jumps you don't get a simple PDE, you get a (non-local) integro-differential equation instead, check out:

 http://www.iac.cnr.it/~natalini/castiglione05.pdf   (16th slide)

 http://www.datasimfinancial.com/UserFiles/articles/PIDE.pdf   (eqn 3.)

seems like the reference you want is:

Merton, R. 1976 Option Pricing when Underlying Stock Returns are Discontinuous,
 Journal of Financial Economics, 125-144, May 1976
