For v,m≥0, define F(v,m)=E[(e−v/2+v​Y−m)+], where Y has the standard normal distribution. For v,m>0, completing the square in the standard normal density gives
F(v,m)=Φ(d1​)−mΦ(d2​),d1​=v​−logm+v/2​,d2​=d1​−v​,

where Φ is the standard normal distribution function. The boundary values are F(0,m)=(1−m)+ and F(v,0)=1. Multiplying by the current stock price produces a zero-interest Black-Scholes formula with total variance v and relative strike m.
