Options are often priced by Black and Scholes model by using artificial (and unobserved) volatility implied by option market prices. Since many options do not have their traded counterparts with the same maturity and moneyness, it is often needed to interpolate the volatility values. The general procedure of implied volatility extraction from market prices and subsequent smoothing can, however, lead to inconsistent values or even arbitrage opportunities. In this paper, a potential arbitrage area is studied in connection with the calendar bandwidth construction.
